Product Details
Built around a 21" swing and 21x80 capacity, the JET GH-2180ZX 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-2180ZX 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.
This particular GH-2180ZX package is equipped with a Acu-Rite 203 digital readout, giving the operator real-time positional feedback to cut setup time and reduce scrap.
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
Every GH-2180ZX 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.
large-scale repair facilities, heavy fabrication shops, and energy and oilfield equipment suppliers all turn to the GH-2180ZX when precision and durability are non-negotiable.
