These sturdily constructed steel chuck shields are fabricated of 18-gauge steel with reinforced sides and can be used on smaller lathes that have up to 18 1/2" diameter chucks.
Each shield is furnished with a 1" x 13" mounting rod which can be cut to length if required. This mounting rod is fastened to the headstock of the lathe. The mounting rod is also used to hinge the entire shield. The shield can be lifted and swung up for quick and easy access to the chuck and the part being machined.
This shield includes a high-impact polycarbonate window which permits visibility into the point of operation.
Various types of mounting brackets are available.
If shields for larger lathes are required, please see Large Steel Lathe Chuck Shields .
