Each jaw moves independently, allowing the operator to center irregular, asymmetrical, or non-round workpieces that a scroll chuck cannot grip accurately. The body is cast iron construction with a plain back mount, making it adaptable to a range of lathe spindle configurations with an appropriate backplate. Included solid reversible jaws and a T-wrench make this a ready-to-use setup for machine shops and toolrooms. The through-hole diameter of 3.75 inches accommodates bar stock and shaft work through the spindle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis chuck is suited for use in production machine shops, tool and die operations, maintenance shops, and vocational or industrial training environments. It is typically installed on manual engine lathes where workpieces require individual jaw adjustment for precise concentricity or offset turning. The plain back mount style requires a matching backplate machined to fit the specific lathe spindle nose, making it a flexible choice for shops that need to fit the chuck to multiple machine configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-inch chuck diameter for large-capacity workholding on full-size engine lathes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 independent jaws allow precise centering of irregular, asymmetrical, and non-cylindrical workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid reversible jaws included, extending gripping range for both small and large diameter stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast iron body for rigidity and vibration damping during turning operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlain back mount design accommodates custom or lathe-specific backplates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.75-inch through-hole diameter allows bar stock to pass through the spindle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eT-wrench included for jaw adjustment at the machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style manual lathe chuck for use on engine lathes accepting a plain back mount configuration with an appropriate machined backplate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or machine tool technician. The lathe must be powered off and locked out before mounting or removing the chuck from the spindle. A properly fitted and faced backplate is required for plain back mount chucks; the backplate must be bored and threaded to match the specific lathe spindle nose before the chuck is mounted. Verify jaw seating and chuck runout with a dial indicator before commencing cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChuck Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Independent\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChuck Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Jaws\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: One-piece, reversible\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.7344 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5469 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThrough-Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain Back\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Reversible Jaws, T-Wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 95 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112807\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 429-4012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690207510834,"sku":"429-4012","price":368.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/985ef23758abab1e0f69306b705fe537_917d8241-83ee-4bca-a339-86661d8201e5.jpg?v=1788267340","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-429-4012-12-in-4-jaw-independent-lathe-chuck","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
