  • These jaws are able to hold the smallest work pieces. The convex internal radius on each jaw is designed to avoid damage to small and fragile work. It allows the user to get very close to support thin work as safely as possible. It also allows good access to work close to the base of a work piece without the tool fouling on the jaws. For maximum support always ensure the workpiece features a spigot long enough to be supported along the full length of the jaws’ internal surface.   SC1 Contraction Spigot: 4 - 11.5 mm Contraction Square: 4 - 11.5 mm SC2 Contraction Spigot: 4 - 25.5 mm Contraction Square: 4 - 25.5 mm
  • Another of the most popular jaws for full size chucks – these are also ideal for smaller chuck projects too. We have set the range of these bodies to be compatible with most tea light holder designs (on either body) as well as many salt or pepper pot designs and these offer an excellent expansion grip for many projects. The end of the jaw
    is dovetailed so can be used on its own as a delicate grip – or the jaw can be inserted full length using the back jaw face as a register and providing wall support to prevent the workpiece being knocked from a dovetail only grip. The dovetail at the end provides additional security in expansion mode.
    SC1 Expansion: 39 - 47.5 mm Contraction Spigot: 6 - 14.5 mm Contraction Square: 4.5 - 12 mm SC2 Expansion: 39.5 - 60 mm Contraction Spigot: 6 - 26 mm Contraction Square: 4.5 - 25 mm
  • This live centre features two high quality sealed-for-life bearings, giving incredibly smooth rotation and the 60º point is optimised to give the best grip possible from a single point of contact. It is ideal for use on spindle work and can also be used to support headstock mounted bowls and larger vessels from the tailstock.
  • This ring centre features two high quality sealed-for-life bearings, giving extremely smooth rotation. The ring design gives a larger area of contact than a traditional live centre for an increased grip. This makes it ideal for supporting small or brittle timbers and works very well with paper-jointed blanks, giving a strong grip to both pieces of timber either side of the joint. Another great advantage of this design is that workpieces can be removed and refitted to the lathe accurately, thanks to the positive location of the centre point and ring, which can be used for easy registration.
  • The abrasive honing wheel that can be shaped to allow honing of gouge flutes, especially useful for the woodcarver.
  • The central locating pin of the drive centre retracts into its body when pressure is applied from the lathe tailstock, leaving the ring of teeth around the circumference to hold the workpiece extremely securely, with clamping pressure spread evenly across the teeth.  The retraction of the locating pin means it cannot split the timber, making it ideal for use with smaller and more delicate work.
    The locating pin tension is adjustable, allowing for lower tension to be set for small, delicate workpieces and higher tension for use with hard woods and large timbers.
    Another key benefit of this design is that the workpiece can be removed from the lathe if required and easily repositioned, using the indentations created by the locating pin and ring of teeth as an accurate guide.
  • To complement the new pin jaws, the mini spigot jaws have also been improved. These jaws perform many of the same tasks in expansion and the extra screw hole profiles and added teeth to the outside provide tremendous grip for when this area will not be visible in the finished work piece. This set has been given a 13 mm internal diameter, making it ideal for turning strong spigots on knobs and handles, again adding to their versatility. Expansion: 26 - 46 mm Contraction Spigot: 13 - 33 mm Contraction Square: 11 - 31 mm
  • Nova Series – Spigot Jaws

    £41.96£51.56
    Specially designed to provide a strong contracting grip to unsupported spigot turning applications, e.g. vases and goblets. It can handle spigots from 30mm (13/36inch) to 50mm (2inch). Also features expanding grip mode.
  • Records' new pin jaws have been improved by squaring the external shoulder to allow workpieces to properly register against the back of the jaws. This is ideal for use in expansion, to grip tubes in work pieces such as pepper or salt grinders. We have also reduced the internal diameter to 9 mm, making it ideal for making finials or lace bobbins - Thereby increasing its versatility. This set is ideal for miniature turning and to grip workpieces internally without excessive damage or marking. Expansion: 28 - 45 mm Contraction Spigot: 9 - 28 mm Contraction Square: 7 - 27 mm
  • Remounting jaws are incredibly popular due to their flexibility. They work in both contraction and expansion modes and can be fitted behind other jaw sets to create bespoke setups to make turning more efficient. The soft stoppers are designed to hold without causing damage, making them ideal for remounting finished or partly finished objects for further work. Expansion: 95 - 215 mm Contraction Spigot: 59 - 170 mm Contraction Square: 53 - 154 mm
  • Featuring a specialised dovetail profile, these jaws are ideal for turning large bowls, green timber and hollow vessels. They combine the profile of our previously popular 100 mm dovetail jaws with a deep body and internal teeth to improve versatility. The outer dovetail jaws are ideal for large bowls or platters, particularly when gripping onto a spigot and the deep internal toothed body is ideal for large spigots of large hollow vessels. Expansion: 94 - 114 mm Contraction Spigot: 76 - 95 mm Contraction Square: 54 - 74 mm
  • These extended jaws act like a pin chuck, expanding into a pre-bored hole. A useful technique for free form edge bowls as you don't have to bore an exact size as with other pin jaws. The longer jaws allow for a very powerful spigot grip for smaller work. Also features a small dovetail. Expansion 26 - 46mm Contraction square: 28 - 7mm Contraction spigot 31 - 10mm

  • Featuring a specialised dovetail profile, these jaws are ideal for turning up to 30” bowls. They also feature a reverse dovetail for a contracting grip on large spigots. Expansion: 125 - 145 mm Contraction Spigot: 104 - 123 mm Contraction Square: 74 - 94 mm   .
  • These extremely flexible jaws feature internal and external dovetails for bowl work. The deep internal grip is versatile but main benefit of these jaws is to project the work away from the chuck, allowing good tool access to the base of the timber for cleaning and shaping. Expansion: 54 - 74 mm Contraction Spigot: 38 - 58 mm Contraction Square: 27.5 - 48 mm
  • These new jaws are ideal for heavy bowls and vases. The wide front face provides a good register for the base of the bowl or vase and the deep toothed body provides strong grip on the spigot. The internal gripper can also be used on smaller rough green timber. Also featuring an external dovetail in expansion, they can be used for large platters. A truly versatile and solid jaw set.

  • Stebcentre

    £61.26£71.48
    The original Stebcentre is an invaluable accessory for every woodturner. Fitted in the lathe head-stock it is a boon for both the novice and the experienced. Its ring of sharp teeth ensure that the Stebcentre bites the wood to give more security and more drive. Because there are several points of contact there is minimal risk of splitting. The Stebcentre can be used with equal confidence on both soft and hardwoods as well as synthetic materials. In its patented design the Stebcentre also features a spring-loaded point. By slightly backing off the tail-stock the work piece still remains resting between the revolving centre and the Stebcentre. This allows the turner to inspect his work without the need to switch off the lathe. Where time is a critical factor the Stebcentre is ideal as the work-piece can be quickly removed without stopping the lathe. Overall length: 4". Patent No. 2286138

    Record have increased the capacity of their larger remounting jaws, whilst ensuring they can still clear the bed of lathes with the popular 12” swing capacity and are capable of holding 275 mm (10 3/4”) diameter bowls in contraction mode. Remounting jaws are incredibly popular due to their flexibility. They work in both contraction and expansion modes and can be fitted behind other jaw sets to create bespoke set-ups to make turning more efficient. The soft stoppers are designed to hold without causing damage, making them ideal for remounting finished or partly finished objects for further work.
  • Largely inspired by Norwegian turner Petter Herud a series of Revolving (or Live) Stebcentres has been introduced. Not only do these offer the same degree of security as the conventional Stebcentre, but they have allowed the turner to experiment with basic off-centre turning.
