Special Tall Grippers for Scroll Chucks and Expansion (Cole) Jaws **100% U.S. Materials!!**

These new grippers will allow you to mount bowls and other turnings that could not be mounted using the grippers that come with your chuck and expansion or Cole jaws. Before, if your bowl had an edge that dropped down it couldn’t be held on the grippers and you’d have to find another way to turn the base or foot. With these grippers you can grip edges that drop down up to ¾ of an inch and still get a secure hold on the piece.

These grippers are made of aluminum that has a long lasting and bright red anodized coating. They are covered with Tygon, a very tough and resilient polymer, for great gripping power that is gentle to the edge of the bowl. They are held with button head hex drive bolts that use the same hex wrench that you use to mount the jaws on the chuck, so you won’t need another tool to use them. NOTE: Newer versions of some chucks may use Torx screws, but these will still work on the chuck. You'll just need a 4mm hex wrench.

Since the bolt holds against the aluminum you don’t deform the grippers as you tighten them to the jaws. Also, since these are machined you won’t have any run out, which causes wobbling, like you get with the standard rubber grippers. As long as your work is turned round you can mount and remount with very little if any alignment concerns. Once you start to use these you’ll likely never use the standard grippers again even if you don’t need the additional height these give you. In one of the photos I show these holding a bowl with a dropped edge. The point of contact is about ½ inch above the face of the jaw. Try that with your standard grippers.

Please note that the jaws and chuck you see in a couple of the photos are NOT INCLUDED!

I know these fit the following chucks:

Nova
Oneway
Wood River
Stronghold
Wen chuck and Flat Jaws
Grizzly: ONLY models T-10808, T-10810 and T-10811
Vicmarc VM120, VM140 and VM150 (But not the VM90 or VM100)

They will NOT fit the Barracuda chuck.

The kit includes 8 grippers with Tygon covering and 8 bolts. I know it fits chucks listed, but it may also work with other chucks. This system will work with any scroll chuck that has M6-1.0 threads for mounting. You can also use these without the expansion jaws since they will attach directly to the slides in the chuck. This can be handy for smaller work.

Below are some testimonials I've received from customers who have used my grippers:

I purchased the Cole jaw grippers and am amazed at how well they work. They surpass the grippers that came with the jaws by at least four times. This was the best addition to my lathe tooling accessories yet! The material grips well but does not dent the wood. Your design is flawless! Thanks so very much!

The tall grippers made an immediate improvement in my ability to accurately and safely turn lidded boxes and to put a finishing touch on bowls.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are a wood turner and have Cole jaws, get these. They are a game changer. They are several orders of magnitude more superior to what came with your Cole jaws.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These grippers are far superior to all those sold by Oneway

Fast shipping. Excellent product. Item was exactly as described.

I used the grippers on a large bowl I was working on and they worked very well.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These adapters are of premium high quality. They work well for the intended use and I can't imagine anything better out there. The builder obviously has a solid understanding of wood turners need and built an exceptional product that can't be found anywhere. Buy a set for your shop. You won't be sorry! I appreciate it.

Dennis,
Just wanted you to know that I received my grippers Friday. It turned out I needed them that afternoon for a project, saved the day. I liked them enough to order a set for my son in Seattle. I have really been enjoying your YouTube videos, I wish you would write a book on segmented turning it would be a great resource. Thanks again, Fred Davis
Dennis,
I just wanted to drop you a short note regarding the grippers. I bought 3 sets and after they got lost in the mail system you sent me a replacement order. I really appreciated the service and hope that the “lost” order found its way back to you.
The secondary reason for writing is to say, “I really like, no I love the grippers. Before I had buttons that came with the Cole jaws of those I got from One Way. To use them I had to use the tail stock for support and put blue tape around the bowl to be sure it held in place. NOW I just mount the Cole jaws with your grippers, screw it down tight to where the gripper grips around the edge, and don’t bother with the tape or the tailstock for support. The grippers hold securely and never mar the wood.”
Thank you for creating such a wonderful product. I have told all my friends about the grippers
James
