Dillon Manufacturing manufactures Custom Top Jaws in special widths to better grip workpieces and provide more part contact and penetration, with added length for better grip of small- to medium-sized parts. Incorporating multiple locating diameters enables machinists flexibility and the ability to changeover quickly. With the ability to grip a workpiece inner diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD) or a combination of both, Dillon Special Top Jaws securely grip parts without marring or marking the surface and in many materials to best suit the properties of the workpiece. Hard jaws can even be configured to accommodate several different diameters. Dillon’s standard and custom chuck jaws and collet pads and jaws are said to be ideal for high-speed machining, precision boring, tapping, drilling and finishing across all industrial markets.
Dillon says its custom, special or modified hard, soft or full grip top jaws are compatible with virtually any chuck manufacturer and are built with industry-best turnaround time. Tapered angle serrated surfaces that mirror the draft angle of the parts to be machined can also be designed.
Dillon has created a form online at that is designed for customers to easily order jaws with their exact desired dimensions.
