RIKON’s Z4 4-Jaw Chuck Kit 71-104 is the ideal accessory for the wood lathe, perfect for turning bowls, platters, spindles, and decorative pieces. This larger, heavy-duty 4-jaw, self-centering chuck is CNC-precision made from high-tensile steel with a geared jaw system for easy operation and excellent project holding power. The improved design of the chuck sliders provides added strength for attaching a variety of available jaw set accessories. Meticulously machined chuck body and internal gearing system operate flawlessly for reliable closing and opening operation with the included special Chuck Key.
- The Z4 Chuck has a direct-threaded 1-1/4″ x 8TPI body for immediate mounting on lathes. Kit includes a 50mm (2″) Jaw Set, Wood Screw RH, Chuck Key, T-handle T20 Wrench, 3mm Hex Wrench, and Instructions. For use on larger lathes with swings 14″ and above.
- The Z4 Chuck is 3-7/8″ (98.5mm) diameter with pre-machined 1-1/4″ x 8TPI body. At about 3.8 lbs., this robust weight and larger chuck diameter are best for use on larger-sized lathes that turn heavier wood projects, which can damage smaller-sized lathes. Chuck features an extra-fine finish with etched safety icons and a serial number for registration under the industry’s best 10-year warranty.
- 50mm (2″) Jaw Set accessory that is included with the Z4 Chuck is one of the most popular, standard jaw styles for holding bowl or spindle/tenon projects. Over 20 other sizes and shapes of RIKON jaw sets are available for use with the Z4 chuck to hold bowls, platters, pen-making blanks, or other turnings on your lathe.
- The chuck holds the Wood Screw to mount a small bowl or other lightweight projects for turning. Sharp threads cut into wood for the best holding power. Requires a pilot hole bored in the wood before installation.
