14" x 40" Gear Head Lathe w/ Acu-Rite 203, Collet Closer, & Taper Attachment Kit, 2HP, 230/460V 3PH(GH-1440-3)

The JET GH-1440-3 brings 14x40 capacity and a 14" swing to shops that can't afford downtime, combining rigid cast iron construction with industry-standard safety equipment.

With 40" between centers and a 2" spindle bore, the GH-1440-3 handles longer workpieces and larger stock than typical shop lathes in its class, reducing re-chucking and secondary operations.

Behind the headstock sits a 2 HP Three-Phase motor, and with 16 spindle speeds across 45-1800 RPM, operators can dial in the right speed for nearly any material.

This particular GH-1440-3 package is equipped with a Acu-Rite 203 digital readout, giving the operator real-time positional feedback to cut setup time and reduce scrap, a collet closer, which speeds up workholding changeovers and improves repeatability on small-diameter or bar-fed parts, and a taper attachment kit, giving operators precise control over taper angles without disturbing the compound rest setting.

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

JET backs every GH-1440-3 with a 2-year parts and labor warranty and a pre-shipment inspection, so shops get predictable ownership costs and fast access to service when needed.

automotive and light manufacturing, MRO and maintenance shops, and fabrication and job shops all turn to the GH-1440-3 when precision and durability are non-negotiable.
