Dillon Manufacturing creates aggressive diamond-shaped serrations on its hard jaws to increase the pull-down effect, which reduces part slippage and push back from using a bar feeder, making them ideal for cast parts, scaly parts or parts with imperfections.
Manufactured with 8620 steel and case hardened with precision-ground locating surfaces, then black-oxide coated for corrosion resistance, these hard jaws are available in one-step or two-step sets and are reversible for OD or ID chucking. Dillon says one set of hard jaws covers a wide clamping range, and they are available in standard sizes from stock and in different mounting configurations, including serrated, tongue and groove, Acme and square-serrated key types to fit all brands of chucks. Dillon chuck jaws provide multiple radiuses for both inside and outside clamping, making them suitable for any size run. Dillon also offers custom or modified hard jaws.
