Jet 321292 Collet Closer for Zx Lathe Models

Product Description

The JET 321292 is a collet closer designed for use with ZX series lathes. A collet closer allows the operator to secure and release workpieces quickly and accurately without removing the collet from the spindle. This reduces setup time between operations and improves repeatability on production runs. The 321292 mounts to the rear of the lathe headstock and actuates the collet draw tube through a lever or handwheel mechanism, depending on the lathe configuration. It is installed and serviced by machinists and lathe operators working in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and toolroom environments.

The JET 321292 is intended for use with JET ZX series lathes. It is suited for shops running repetitive turning operations where fast workpiece changeover is a priority. The collet closer eliminates the need for a chuck on jobs that call for round or hex bar stock held in collets, improving concentricity and reducing jaw-change downtime on short-run and production work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or lathe technician. Disconnect and lock out the lathe from its power source before beginning any work on the headstock or spindle assembly. Follow the lathe manufacturer's instructions for aligning and securing the collet closer to the draw tube. Do not operate the lathe until all mounting hardware is fully tightened and the draw tube engagement is verified.
