Big Savings — Small Investment
Avoid Set-up Measurements Every Time You Place Parts in the Chuck with OTMT Chuck Stops. This 5-piece/3-piece chuck stop set or chuck spacers from OTMT is your best option for machining below the jaw for 3 inches, 6 inches, or 8 inches diameter chucks. The Chuck Stop by OTMT is designed to locate shorter parts beyond the chuck jaws to provide clearance for facing operations. The Chuck Stop uses different height parallel bars to achieve the required spacing. A centering plug is used to keep the unit centered to the internal diameter of the chuck. Powerful magnets secure it to the face of the chuck. Paper-thin ±.002"" (±0.05mm) parallel surfaces keep the parts where you need them. This particular works well with smaller and shorter jobs with repeatability. Travers is offering OTMT chuck stops or spacers in sets of 5 pieces. These spacers are designed especially for a minimum 3 inches or 6 inches three-jaw chucks. A variety of magnetic stop options are available in red and dimensions of 8.5 to 35mm.
