Product Description

Axminster Woodturning have recreated some of the most popular jaws in the smaller size to accommodate the 88mm Essential Chuck. The Axminster Woodturning Type A Dovetail Jaws are a great general purpose jaw set. Ideal for turning bowls, plates, the internal dovetail will also allow spindle work project like vases, goblets to be safely held. They offer three gripping options: two internal dovetails and one external. The jaws will expand into a 100mm recess and grip onto either 50mm or 26mm diameter spigots. The actual variation is 78mm to 102mm external, 48mm to 72mm internal and 12mm to 36mm smaller internal. These jaws are designed to fit the SK88 chuck and will simply bolt onto the Accessory Mounting Jaws. All made entirely in Axminster, UK. As the Essential SK88 Chuck and Jaws are made from EN1A steel, instead of stainless steel like the Clubman and Evolution premium chuck offerings, it is recommend to spray it lightly with a dry lubricant on a regular basis to prevent tarnishing. You should do this more frequently if you are working in a damp workshop or turning wet timber. Please note: the Axminster Woodturning Essential SK88 range of jaws are compatible with the Clubman SK80 Chuck. The Essential SK88 Jaws will also fit the Clubman and Evolution SK100 Chucks as well as the Evolution SK114 Chuck, providing the SK88 Mounting Jaws are used.
