Product Details
For shops that measure success in uptime, the JET GH-1340 13x40 Gear Head Engine Lathe delivers a 13" swing and a drivetrain built to run shift after shift without losing accuracy.
Capacity is where the GH-1340 stands out, with a 2" spindle bore for larger stock and 39" between centers for long shafts, rollers, and cylindrical parts.
A 2 HP Single-Phase motor and 8-speed gear head combine to cover a 90-2000 RPM speed range, from heavy roughing to fine finish passes.
This configuration of the GH-1340 adds a Acu-Rite 203 digital readout for precise, at-a-glance positioning that reduces reliance on manual dial counting, and a collet closer for faster, more repeatable workholding on smaller-diameter stock and bar work.
Standard industrial safety features include:
- Integrated coolant system
- UL 987 certified electrical system
- 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
Ownership costs stay predictable thanks to JET's 2-year parts and labor warranty on the GH-1340, plus a pre-shipment inspection on every unit.
From MRO and maintenance shops to fabrication and job shops, the GH-1340 is a fit anywhere technical education programs demand accuracy and uptime.
