Product Details
The JET GH-1340 13x40 Gear Head Engine Lathe is built for shops that need 13" of swing and dependable, all-day turning performance without cutting corners on operator safety.
The GH-1340's 39" distance between centers and 2" spindle bore give operators the reach and through-capacity needed for longer shafts and bar stock passed directly through the headstock.
The geared head is turned by a 2 HP Single-Phase motor, offering 8 spindle speeds spanning 90-2000 RPM for flexibility across materials and cut depths.
This configuration of the GH-1340 adds a collet closer, which speeds up workholding changeovers and improves repeatability on small-diameter or bar-fed parts.
Standard industrial safety features include:
- 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
- UL 987 certified electrical system
- Electronic chuck key holder to reduce the risk of a key left in the chuck
A pre-shipment inspection and 2-year parts and labor warranty stand behind every GH-1340, backed by JET's nationwide authorized service network.
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.
