Product Details

Built around a 13" swing and 13x40 capacity, the JET GH-1340 Gear Head Engine Lathe gives operators the rigidity and control needed for demanding, repeatable turning work.

A 2" spindle bore and 39" between centers put the GH-1340 ahead of comparable lathes, letting larger-diameter material pass through the headstock while supporting long-bed turning operations.

Power comes from a 2 HP Single-Phase motor feeding a 8-speed gear head (90-2000 RPM), delivering steady torque across a wide range of turning, facing, and threading operations.

As configured here, the GH-1340 includes a Acu-Rite 203 digital readout, giving the operator real-time positional feedback to cut setup time and reduce scrap.

Standard industrial safety features include:

  • Electronic chuck key holder to reduce the risk of a key left in the chuck
  • Foot brake for rapid spindle stopping
  • Chuck guard at the point of operation
  • Full-length splash guard
  • Lead screw cover to keep debris out of the drive mechanism
  • Integrated coolant system

Every GH-1340 is inspected prior to shipment and backed by a 2-year parts and labor warranty, supported by JET's nationwide network of authorized service centers.

Shops in fabrication and job shops and technical education programs rely on the GH-1340 for consistent, repeatable turning work, as do automotive and light manufacturing.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

  • Collet Closer (Optional)
  • Taper Attachment Kit (Optional)
