All NOVA jaws are specially designed to provide maximum grip expanding into a
mortis/recess or contracting around wood tenons/spigots of varying sizes and
shapes. NOVA chucks can instantly swap from the expansion mode to the contracting
mode, with no adjustments or extra fittings being necessary. Any mortis/recess or
tenon/spigot size can be selected between the minimum and maximum range of the
jaws. The jaw slides (accessory jaws removed) can be used to grip small
tenons/spigots.
ACCURACY: The PRO-TEK G3 Chucks are sample tested from each batch and are made
to run within the following tolerance limits measured on the 50mm (2”) PRO-TEK
Jaws:
Face/Axial Runout (X Axis) Maximum: 0.08mm (0.0031 inch)
Radial Runout (Y Axis) Maximum: 0.15mm (0.0060 inch)
Testing is performed with the chuck mounted with a standard NOVA threaded insert.
However, note that wood is an elastic material with different densities even in the
same piece, and liable to warp out of place while turning. This is a part of the beauty
and appeal of working with wood. However, under these circumstances pursuing
accuracies (as above) with mounted wood can be difficult to achieve. For most
woodturning situations (with some expectations) there is little need to achieve such
tolerances.
