03J7785 - Rikon Jaw Set for Basic Bowl & Spindle Turning
We're often asked which jaws we recommend for various turning applications. To cover a wide range of spindle projects, as well as small bowls and vessels from 4" to 6" in diameter, we've selected two Rikon jaw sets that provide options for holding work throughout the turning process. The selection includes 45mm standard jaws and 53mm step jaws, offered at a saving compared to purchasing them separately at our regular prices.
The 45mm spigot jaws (71-208) are a reliable choice for spindle work and end-grain hollowing. They have a long serrated inner bore to grip a spigot as small as 1 5/8" in diameter securely, as well as an outer dovetailed profile to hold hollow forms with a minimum diameter of approximately 2" from within.
The versatile 53mm step jaws (71-205) have an inner bore with three dovetailed steps to accommodate a range of mounting diameters (approximately 1.65", 2" and 2.5") when gripping the feet of bowls and platters in contraction. The dovetailed outer faces can also expand into a recess, with a minimum expanding diameter of just under 3 1/2".
All are made of machined and polished steel. Mounting screws not included.
Also compatible with standard Nova chucks, except Nova Quick Change models. Covered by a 10-year warranty.
