Vicmarc Vacuum Chucks & Accessories

These devices have been designed as an aid to Woodturning.

It enables an item to be re-mounted on the lathe for finishing without risking further holding marks.

The rotary adapter is fitted with two ball bearings and lets the lathe spindle turn freely while the hose, and connection remain stationary.

All the vacuum accessories can be used with a normal household vacuum cleaner or a vacuum pump provided it has a flow rate of at least 3.2 m3/h (1.9 cfm). If using a vacuum pump be cautious not to set the pressure too high as this will result in possible damage to the bearing seals in the Rotating Union. Always start with low pressure and work your way up to a desired pressure.
