Re: Lathe Chuck Rust??
hello twice a year, clean the chuck and coolant tank ... like this, you can also inspect wear progress, for the fix jaws and plunger, etc
otherwise, from time to time, put some vaseline in it, etc
rust appears sooner or later, question is how deep ? and you can check the quality of your clamping, by inspecting tir after you craft soft jaws
a chuck that is not ok, will have one fix jaw tilting differently than the other 2 ... thus this is the 1st sign
Chucks are way too expensive to get it wrong
chucks are consumable; not as fast as a carbide insert, but still / kindly
