Drum ChucksHigh quality aluminum chucks for all your vacuum turning needs!ONEWAY Drum Chucks are manufactured from a solid block of aluminum. They are non-pourous and will never rust - which is a must for vacuum applications. These chucks are supplied with a ring of neoprene which is applied to the rim of the chuck so it will conform to slightly out of round pieces. We currently offer the Drum Chucks in FOUR sizes: 12" Drum ChuckThis large beast is manufactured from a cast aluminum block. An amazing amount of vacuum is created due to it's extremely large volume. It's an excellent choice for turning large bowls and platters. Important Note: This Drum Chuck does not come with a former like the other sizes, but does include a 12" neoprene ring, taper-lock adaptor, and a removal lever. 3½" Drum ChuckIt's small size makes it extremely versatile as it can fit almost any lathe, large or small. It is just like it's larger counter-parts, just smaller. It comes with a former (lid), Taper-Lock Adaptor, & Neoprene.
