Knob and Handwheel Kit, Mini Lathe

Knob and Handwheel Kit, Mini Lathe - Main image
$64.76 $89.95 In stock

The attractive handwheels are all metal, and the levers are chrome. Designed for SIEG C2, SC2 and C3 class of mini lathes as well as HiTorque mini lathes.

The saddle drive gear in this kit is an upgraded version with a threaded end. This allows the handwheel to hold to the gear shaft using one of the chrome acorn nuts. In the factory version of the lathe, the hand wheel was held to the gear using a cone point set screw.

The tailstock handwheel also has an acorn nut for attachment to the tailstock screw. In this application, the chrome acorn nut simply replaces a standard M8 nut.

  • Two chrome hand wheels
  • Two chrome handles
  • Two chrome handle bolts
  • Two chrome M8 acorn nuts
  • Three chrome levers with M8 threading
  • One upgraded 24 tooth saddle gear

Eli I. ★★★★★

The all-metal handwheels feel incredibly solid compared to the plastic originals, and swapping them out was a breeze. The chrome levers add a nice touch of precision to my lathe controls.

Stella ★★★★★

Installed these on my mini lathe yesterday and the chrome levers give the whole setup a much cleaner, more professional look than the stock plastic knobs. The saddle drive gear is a nice upgrade too, everything fits the C3 class without any fiddling.

Alexander ★★★★★

The chrome levers feel solid and grip nicely, and swapping out the stock handwheels on my mini lathe took maybe ten minutes. Everything is all metal, so it looks the part and should hold up far better than the plastic originals.
