Morning all. I am currently looking into important chucks and I am interested to know the common spindle sizes for lathes.

 

[ajmw89]

My poolewood has a weird one, so I'm probably irrelevant, but it's 1 1/2" x 6TPI

 

[Penpal]

I standardised with 1 inch ten threads for years on my wood lathes commencing with Woodfast lathes then others some with 1/2 inch 25 threads.

Peter.

 

[Vic Perrin]

Two different threads for me Dan

1 1/4" x 8 TPI on the Record Maxi 1

1" x 8 TPI on my Small Axi VS

 

[Gizmo3k]

Record Power CL3 3/4" by 16tpi

 

[Woody]

Hi Dan my Nova has a 1 1/4" x 8 tpi the same with the Maxi 1 most record lathes like the CL and DML range have a 3/4" x 16 as do most of the budget lathes Clarks, Draper, SIP, and the likes I would say these are the common threads 3/4" x 16 and the 1" x 8tpi being the most common hope this helps mate

Your right Woody had a senior moment I am getting old you know. I have changed the size on my post I have also found a chart done by Peter Child's that lists a load of sizes.

Thanks for that Vic. The chucks I am looking at are very similar to the charnwood viper chucks. Hopefully I will be able to match and hopefully beat their price. I am keen to find one with interchangeable inserts.

This list from the Toolpost is what I usually refer to:

Spindle Data

It is however inaccurate insofar as Record lathes are concerned they are not all 3/4 x 16tpi. The Record Novas and Maxis are 1 1/4 x 8tpi
