The chuck plays a crucial role in any mechanical workshop, serving as the primary system for clamping objects onto a lathe. This fundamental component is now adapted for use on a table, making it perfectly suited to hold cylindrical objects with precision. It's ideal for smaller tasks or painting projects that require a secure grip. The housing of the chuck securely fits onto the spiral part, providing a stable base for the pliers. To assemble, start by mounting the plier whose tooth is closest to the centre of the spiral. This configuration ensures a balanced and even distribution of pressure. Tightening the chuck is a straightforward process that doesn't require any additional tools. Simply turn the spiral to secure the object in place.
