Who Should Use This Heavy-Duty Lathe Chuck Cover?
Use this lathe chuck cover if you need something to handle rough, heavy-duty operations. This chuck guard will not mind being blasted by coolant or continuously whipped by chips and swarf. A built-in rubber flap will leave more coolant and chips inside the shield and less over your stomach.
This heavy-duty lathe chuck guard does not offer excellent visibility, but its shortcomings exceed its durability. What kind of work do you perform on your lathe? If you use your machine for high-precision work, try our model TF—Universal Lathe Chuck Shield.
