Product Details
For shops that measure success in uptime, the JET GH-1660ZX 16x60 Large Spindle Bore ZX Gear Head Lathe delivers a 16" swing and a drivetrain built to run shift after shift without losing accuracy.
Capacity is where the GH-1660ZX stands out, with a 3-1/8" spindle bore for larger stock and 60" between centers for long shafts, rollers, and cylindrical parts.
A 10 HP Three-Phase motor and 12-speed gear head combine to cover a 26-1500 RPM speed range, from heavy roughing to fine finish passes.
This configuration of the GH-1660ZX adds a Newall NMS800 digital readout for precise, at-a-glance positioning that reduces reliance on manual dial counting.
Standard industrial safety features include:
- 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
- UL 987 certified electrical system
Ownership costs stay predictable thanks to JET's 2-year parts and labor warranty on the GH-1660ZX, plus a pre-shipment inspection on every unit.
The GH-1660ZX is well suited for industrial OEMs, large-scale repair facilities, and heavy fabrication shops.
