Axminster Woodturning Evolution SK114 Chuck Package | Woodturning Chuck

More than thirty-five years ago, Axminster produced and marketed one of the world’s first four jaw self centring chucks for woodturners. Over the years, much of the development has come from the feedback and input of professional woodturners. With over three decades of experience in production and design, axminster are very well versed in the world of woodturning chucks and can provide practical, well engineered chucks to enable your turning. 

The Evolution SK114 features a super-slim 114mm (4.5") diameter stainless steel body incorporating our SafetyJaw accessory mounting jaws. These low profile jaws offer a greater contact area within the slide ways of the chuck, minimising vibration during use. The ultra-compact design keeps the workpiece as close as possible to the headstock of your lathe to lessen the load on the bearings and prevent unwanted vibration during heavy stock removal.

The kit gives you the ability to mount bowl blanks for initial turning all the way through to the final completion of a well-executed project; without removing the chuck from your lathe. This kit includes carefully chosen accessories to give you plenty of woodturning potential, it has a set of dovetail jaws (size C), into which you can also mount either the matching faceplate ring or the screw chuck.

The Evolution is fully compatible with all accessory jaws and is the first of a new series of chucks and jaws. All you need to do is choose the chuck thread to suit your lathe.

Made entirely in Axminster, England.
