Two Jaw Lathe Chuck????
What is the application of a 2 jaw self centering lathe chuck? I understand 3,
4, & 6 jaw chucks, but 2 jaw is not intuitive to me. Thanks, Mill |

Thanks, Mill They are quite useful for holding square objects, with 90 degree sections in the jaws, plus other irregular objects, along with round ones. They may not grip as well as three or four jaw chucks in some instances, but they are a nice addition to one's lathe accessories, although not too commonly found. Harold |
