The VEVOR 160mm 3-Jaw Lathe Chuck (K11-160) is an essential tool for professional machinists and metalworkers who require high-precision, self-centering performance for turning and milling tasks. It provides exceptional stability and accuracy with a bearing tolerance of ≤0.05 mm, significantly reducing setup time for repetitive tasks; however, users should note that as a manual chuck, it requires manual operation via the included T-key and is not suitable for high-speed automated production lines.

The chuck features a versatile clamping range from 3.5mm to 160mm using the provided reversible internal and external jaws.
It includes the primary chuck unit and the T-handle key required for operation. Spindle-specific mounting backplates may be required depending on your lathe model.
This is a 3-jaw chuck, which is primarily designed for cylindrical or hexagonal stock. For square stock, a 4-jaw independent chuck is generally recommended.
The K11-160 offers a high-precision bearing tolerance of ≤0.05 mm.
You should wipe down and lightly oil the chuck after every shift, especially if working in a humid environment or with cast iron which creates fine dust.
Clean the jaw slides and scroll with a brush, remove accumulated metal chips, and re-apply a light lubricant.
Ensure no debris is trapped behind the jaw, verify that all three jaws were tightened evenly, and check for any nicks or damage to the jaw faces.
Verify that the chuck is securely mounted to the spindle nose and that the workpiece is not overhanging excessively without support.
Ensure your lathe spindle nose is compatible with the mounting specifications of the K11-160 model. Secure the chuck firmly to the spindle and check that it is properly seated before powering the lathe. Use the included T-key to rotate the scroll and verify that the jaws move smoothly across the full travel range before clamping a workpiece.
This chuck is compatible with most standard metal lathes. Always verify the spindle mounting type of your specific machine before installation.
