Product Information

Full details

The VEVOR K11-200 3-jaw self-centering lathe chuck is designed for machinists and hobbyists requiring high-precision work on lathes, milling machines, and specialized 3D printing setups. Its primary benefit is the self-centering mechanism that significantly reduces setup time by eliminating the need for repeated manual adjustments. While it offers industrial-grade durability with its hardened steel construction, users should note that its substantial weight and 200 mm diameter require a lathe with sufficient swing capacity and spindle compatibility.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this chuck come with a mounting backplate?

No, the K11-200 typically requires a custom or specific backplate to fit your lathe's spindle nose.

What is the maximum diameter this chuck can hold?

The chuck features a clamping range of 4 mm to 200 mm.

Can I use this for woodturning?

While it can clamp round stock, this chuck is specifically engineered for metalworking and high-precision machining.

How often should I lubricate the internal scroll?

It is recommended to clean and lubricate the scroll after every heavy-use session or whenever the jaw movement feels sluggish.

What is the bore diameter?

The center bore diameter is 65 mm.

Are the jaws hardened?

Yes, the jaws are made of 20Cr steel and hardened to 53HRC.

Troubleshooting

Jaws are tight or difficult to turn

Clean the scroll and jaw tracks of metal debris and re-apply clean machine lubricant.

Workpiece is off-center

Verify that all three jaws are inserted in the correct sequential order as marked, and check that there is no dirt preventing full jaw closure.

Excessive runout during operation

Inspect the mounting plate for debris or damage; ensure the chuck is tightened uniformly against the spindle flange.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High clamping precision with ≤0.05 mm tolerance
  • Self-centering action saves significant setup time
  • Robust HT300 and hardened steel construction
  • Versatile internal and external clamping capabilities
  • Generous 65 mm through-hole for versatile workholding

Cons

  • Heavier than aluminum or smaller steel alternatives
  • Requires proper mounting plate (not included)
  • Strict maintenance needed to prevent surface oxidation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the chuck, ensure your lathe spindle nose is clean and free of burrs. The K11-200 requires a matching backing plate to interface with your specific lathe mount. Once mounted, check the runout with a dial indicator to ensure the chuck is true. For maintenance, keep the scroll and gear mechanism well-lubricated with a high-quality machine oil to prevent sticking. After every use, clear away metal chips and shavings from the jaw slides and the internal scroll. If storing the unit for an extended period, apply a light coat of rust-preventative oil to all steel surfaces to maintain the integrity of the 20Cr/40Cr components.
