Technical Description
The Jet GHB-1340A is a geared head bench lathe designed for precision metalworking operations with an enclosed gearbox that delivers smooth, quiet performance. This compact 13" x 40" machine features a hardened and ground spindle supported by precision roller bearings, offering eight selectable speeds ranging from 70 to 2,000 RPM with a maximum swing over bed of 13 inches and a swing through gap capacity of 18-3/4 inches. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 40 inches between centers, with a maximum turning diameter of 7.5 inches and maximum turning length of 40 inches. Equipped with a 2 HP motor operating at 230V single-phase, the lathe utilizes a D1-4 spindle mount with a 1-3/8 inch bore and accepts a 6-inch, three-jaw chuck. The machine provides extensive threading capabilities, including 44 inch threads ranging from 3-1/2 to 52 TPI and metric threads from 0.45 to 10mm. Its V-way bed features induction hardening and grinding for accuracy, while an independent leadscrew and feed rod enable wide inch threading and feed capabilities without gear changes. The lathe includes a four-way tool post, gap bed section for larger diameter work, steady and follow rests, threading dial, and a 12-inch faceplate. With adjustable gibs in the carriage and slideways for precise control, this bench lathe is backed by a two-year warranty and suits job shop and maintenance applications.
