Product Details
Built around a 18" swing and 18x80 capacity, the JET GH-1880ZX Large Spindle Bore ZX Gear Head Lathe gives operators the rigidity and control needed for demanding, repeatable turning work.
A 3-1/8" spindle bore and 83.5" between centers put the GH-1880ZX ahead of comparable lathes, letting larger-diameter material pass through the headstock while supporting long-bed turning operations.
Power comes from a 10 HP Three-Phase motor feeding a 12-speed gear head (26-1500 RPM), delivering steady torque across a wide range of turning, facing, and threading operations.
As configured here, the GH-1880ZX includes 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:
- 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
Every GH-1880ZX 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.
From heavy fabrication shops to energy and oilfield equipment suppliers, the GH-1880ZX is a fit anywhere industrial OEMs demand accuracy and uptime.
