A and rod mechanism design for fast, low-effort setup Simplifies operation so you can change workpieces quickly and cut downtime. Reduces the manual effort required to mount and release parts, improving shop productivity. Reliable self-centering for accurate, repeatable results 3-jaw self-centering technology ensures the workpiece is gripped concentrically on every use. Improves machining accuracy and reduces time spent on re-fixturing and alignment. Durable, compact construction for everyday use Built from hardened material with high-strength construction to withstand repeated use. Lightweight and space-efficient compact design fits tight setups without sacrificing grip stability. Advanced wear resistance for longer component life Surface treatments and wear-resistant construction reduce deterioration from frequent lathe clamp use. Maintains clamping performance under intensive conditions, lowering replacement and maintenance costs. Key attributes at a glance Function: 3-jaw, self-centering clamping for holding round and irregular workpieces Compatibility: Designed for use with lathes, CNC mills, and drills Material: Hardened material and high-strength construction for durability Design: A and rod mechanism for simplified, quick operation; compact and lightweight profile Performance: Consistent grip strength, improved surface durability, extended component life How this product solves common shop problems Faster changeovers: The A and rod mechanism reduces setup time so you can keep machines productive. Consistent part quality: Self-centering jaws deliver repeatable concentricity to minimize scrap and rework. Lower lifecycle cost: Hardened materials and wear resistance mean fewer replacements and more uptime. Better workspace efficiency: Compact footprint saves space and works well in constrained fixtures. Typical use scenarios Woodturning: Securely clamp bowls, spindles, and other wood blanks on a lathe for turning and finishing. CNC machining: Hold round or irregular parts for facing, drilling, or profile milling on a CNC mill. Drilling and fabrication: Use on drill presses or portable drilling setups to maintain concentric drilling and consistent hole placement. What to expect in daily use Quick, reliable setup using the A and rod mechanism Stable grip with three-jaw self-centering action for repeatable operations Long service life due to hardened construction and enhanced wear resistance This clamping solution is aimed at users who need fast changeovers, dependable concentric gripping, and durable components for frequent machining tasks on lathes, CNC mills, and drills.
