NOVA LITE G3 Chuck
The NOVA LITE G3 Chuck (Direct Thread 1″ x 8) 482870 is a light weight chuck, perfect for smaller lathe spindles. The small 1.79″ body length delivers less overhang from the spindle than the larger geared Chucks, and is suitable for smaller lathes with up to 14″ swing. This is a fully featured chuck including Auto Stop, Copper composite Jaw Slides, Comfortable Sliding T Bar Handle, and 2″ (50mm) Jaws. Powerful Tuff Lock gearing with precise, hardened action delivers incredibly smooth strength for a solid, vibration free performance.
This chuck is the replacement for the former model 48232. Differences – the 48232 came with the woodworm screw, this does not; this newer version is righty tighty lefty loosey – a commonly sought after change over the older model; and the jaw slides themselves are no longer numbered – you simply put the jaws (which are numbered) on in clockwise order.
Ideal for mini, midi and smaller lathes with up to 14” diameter swing. Provides a high power geared chuck option for smaller lathes. Light weight and with less overhang which is perfect for smaller lathe spindles as it reduces stress on the spindle. The powerful geared TuffLock™ grip with its precise, hardened gear action delivers a solid, vibration free performance. The chuck key has a fast, positive location, and is easy and comfortable to use. Single-handed operation means more time spent turning and less time preparing.
