Jet 650295 Wedge Type Tool Post Set 200 Series

Product Description

The JET 650295 is a wedge type tool post set designed for use with JET 200 Series lathes. Tool post sets of this type provide a rigid, repeatable method for holding cutting tools during turning operations. The wedge-style locking mechanism applies clamping force directly to the tool holder, reducing chatter and improving cut consistency compared to piston-style alternatives. This set is intended for installation and use by machinists and skilled trade professionals working in machine shops, vocational training facilities, or industrial maintenance environments.

This tool post set is sized and configured for JET 200 Series lathes, making it a direct-fit replacement or upgrade component for those machines. It is suited for general turning, facing, boring, and threading operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The set format includes the post and associated holders, allowing a technician to equip a lathe for multiple tool configurations from a single package.
