The addition of the new SC1 and SC2 to the Record Power range of chucks means that, along with the world-renowned SC3 and SC4, we offer a comprehensive range of chucks and jaws to suit virtually all woodturners’ requirements.
The SC1 and SC2 mini chucks give the turner a choice of four specialist jaws and a faceplate to help turn pieces such as small finials and miniature work right up to a medium size goblet or bowl, with the knowledge and peace-of-mind that the size of the chuck will not interfere with the turner or the work when in use. The SC1 accepts an optional insert which is also compatible with the SC4, giving the same flexibility as the SC4 to be used on a wide variety of lathes. The SC2 is available in a range of the most popular direct thread sizes.
Moving up the scale in weight and choice of jaws, the SC3 is a direct-thread chuck with a choice of three popular thread sizes and also a range of 14 sets of compatible jaws, which suit small intricate work right up to larger bowls and platters. With a heavier build quality and larger scroll ring and jaw carriers than the SC1 and SC2, the SC3 runs with the balance you’d expect from a professional chuck.
The SC4 is our ultimate chuck and requires an insert to allow use across many different lathes. The pinion is integral, making the body slightly larger than the SC3 and allows the use of a ball-end hex key – useful when large workpieces can obstruct access to the side of the chuck. The backing plate of the chuck seals the internal mechanisms from dust while providing a useful 72-point indexing system.
The full range of 14 sets of jaws which are compatible with the SC3 and SC4 will take you from small intricate work to the bowls, goblets and large platters that will test the maximum capacity of your lathe.| SC1 | SC2 | SC3 | SC4 | |

The SC1 and SC2 are the latest additions to Record Power’s premium-quality range of woodturning chucks and jaws. They have been developed in response to the needs of professional and enthusiast woodturners who needed a high quality, accurate and dependable mini-chuck for use with small to medium-sized work.
The SC1 and SC2 are the first mini-chucks on the market to offer woodturners a premium-quality solution for those who regularly turn small, intricate items - bringing the world-renowned quality of the SC3 and SC4 to the mini-chuck market.
They are made to the same high standards as the SC3 and SC4, on modern 3-axis CNC machinery to exacting tolerances. The jaw carriers are made using a metal injection moulding process, giving high tensile strength to these critical components, ensuring they retain their strength and holding power even when operating at the extremes of the chucks’ capabilities. The scroll rings and pinions are made using an investment casting process to ensure high tolerances and repeatable accuracy.
The SC1 works in conjunction with a separately available insert, with the option of 8 different thread sizes to choose from, which means it can be used across a wide variety of lathes with different thread sizes with a simple change of insert. It also makes a perfect partner to the SC4 chuck, as the inserts are a universal fit between both chucks. It also has a very compact 53.5 mm (2”) diameter body and a total length of 70 mm (2 3/4”), including the insert. This gives easier access around the workpiece, making it ideal for the turning of very small items.
The SC2 is a direct-thread chuck and features a larger diameter body than the SC1, at 63.5 mm (2 1/2”), giving larger holding capacities than the SC1. With a depth of 48 mm (1 7/8”), due to the lack of insert, it is slightly shorter than the SC1.
Both chucks are supplied complete with a wood screw, 40 mm standard dovetail jaws, chuck key and jaw fixings.
A range of jaws are available which are compatible with both the SC1 and SC2. These have been developed in consultation with expert woodturners, offering maximum flexibility to deal with the majority of applications that are needed from a mini chuck.
Designed for the woodturner that wants a premium chuck with no compromise in performance and at the best price possible. It uses the same scroll and jaw carriers as the SC4 and has a smaller body because the scroll is engaged through a hole in the side of the body using a traditional chuck key. This is the lowest cost solution, removing the need for intermediate pinions and reducing body size and steel and without affecting the performance of the chuck. Supplied as direct thread bodies only (in the 3 most popular threads for Europe), removing the additional cost of an insert and simplifying the machining. The backing plate is also not present on the SC3 as there are no pinions to keep in place and it is not essential. Therefore we provide the range and performance of the SC4 at the lowest price possible.
This has a larger body as it features integral pinions to drive the scroll ring, giving the benefit of being able to use a ball-end hex key for easier operation. It also offers the option of adding aftermarket hex keys with longer shafts if you have particularly large work mounted. A backing plate keeps the pinions in place and features indexing holes as well as keeping all the internal mechanisms much better protected from dust and resin so the requirement for maintenance and cleaning is much reduced. Perhaps most importantly, this chuck is manufactured as an ‘insert’ chuck. This provides the user the opportunity to use the chuck on more than one lathe with different thread spindles by simply changing the low cost insert rather than requiring an additional body. An insert also provides future proofing so that any machine upgrades will not require a new chuck even if the spindle thread changes, just a change of insert. Inserts are available separately.
