VSC-6 3-jaw precision chuck — 165 mm, 3,300 kgf clamping force (Vertex)

A VSC-6 3-jaw chuck engineered for reliable clamping in workshop and light industrial turning applications, combining strong grip with fine runout control

• 165 mm nominal diameter
• 3-jaw self-centring design
• 3,300 kgf clamping force
• Runout accuracy 0.03 mm at up to 2,000 rpm

Consistent clamping for higher throughput

With a rated clamping force of 3,300 kgf and a nominal diameter of 165 mm, this chuck provides the secure hold needed for repetitive turning tasks. The robust grip reduces workpiece movement and vibration, translating into fewer rejects and shorter cycle times. For production environments where part stability directly affects downstream processes, the combination of firm clamping and a compact footprint supports faster cycle planning and predictable outcomes.

Precision that lowers rework and inspection time

The specified runout accuracy of 0.03 mm explains why this chuck is suitable where concentricity matters. Reduced radial runout minimises machining errors and surface deviations, which in turn decreases the need for re-measurement and corrective passes. The maximum permissible speed of 2,000 rpm balances rotational performance and dynamic stability, allowing for effective finishing and roughing cycles without compromising dimensional control.

Practical design for everyday workshop use

The self-centring 3-jaw layout simplifies set-up and shortens clamping operations, supporting quick part changeovers on lathes and turning centres. Maintenance routines remain straightforward because the construction focuses on functional robustness rather than unnecessary complexity. Supplied through Metav Werkzeuge’s European distribution, the unit benefits from a quality-filtered supply chain that emphasises reliability and consistent delivery to workshop benches.
