This product is manufactured in Sheffield from high-quality alloyed steel, which is over three times stronger than ordinary stainless steel, giving a much more durable edge and improved performance.

The central locating pin retracts into its body when pressure is applied from the woodlathe, leaving the ring of teeth around the circumference to hold the workpiece extremely securely, with clamping pressure spread evenly across the teeth, which also reduces vibration through the timber when turning.

The retraction of the locating pin means it cannot split the timber, making it ideal for use with small, delicate work and laminated projects. The locating pin tension is adjustable, allowing for lower tension to be set for small, delicate workpieces and higher tension for use with hard woods and large timbers.

Another key benefit of this design is that the workpiece can be removed from the woodlathe if required and easily repositioned, using the indentations created by the locating pin and ring of teeth as an accurate guide.

It can be used in conjunction with the range of Coronet Hawk accessories to give ultimate support to the workpiece whilst ensuring the safest grip for fragile work.
