What this chuck is and who uses it
The VEVOR K11-160 is a 6 in self-centering lathe chuck built from HT300 cast iron with 20Cr jaws hardened to 53HRC and a 40Cr scroll at 45HRC. It clamps workpieces from 0.14 in to 6.3 in using internal jaws for 3.5-60 mm and external jaws for 56-160 mm. A 45 mm bore and three M8 fixing threads suit bench lathes, milling-drilling machines and 3D-printer rotary modules where repeatable centring within 0.05 mm is required.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
Machinists and hobbyists needing a hardened three-jaw chuck with reversible jaws for both internal and external clamping will find the 0.14-6.3 in range and 0.05 mm run-out adequate for small shafts, tubes and printed parts. Buyers who need a larger through-hole, a different mounting pattern or a four-jaw independent chuck for off-centre work cannot use this unit.
Installation ease and common issues
The package includes a T-key, three M8 fixing screws, one set of reversible jaws and a manual. Mounting is a direct bolt-on to a 3-M8 backplate; the chuck weighs 8.1 kg so handle it carefully during alignment. The most frequent issue is debris on the scroll or jaw faces raising run-out above the 0.05 mm spec — clean all surfaces and re-seat the jaws before first use.

Questions about this item
What spindle thread pattern does the chuck require for mounting?
The chuck uses a 3-M8 fixed thread pattern for attachment to the lathe spindle.
Will the 0.14-6.3 in clamping range accommodate the same workpieces as my older 3-jaw chuck?
Internal jaws grip 0.138-2.36 in and external jaws grip 2.2-6.3 in, covering a combined 3.5-160 mm range.
How do I verify the 0.05 mm bearing tolerance after installation?
Mount a test bar in the jaws and check run-out with a dial indicator; it should read within 0.002 in.
