MT Spurs & Chuck Spurs

Spurs are made from premium carbon steel - they are made to last. The points are held in the body with a set screw so the length which the point protrudes from the body can be set by the turner.

These spurs are now SPRING LOADED!

What this means is the point has a spring behind it so you will always achieve a positive connection with the piece you are turning. Not only that, you have complete control over the amount of tension in the spring by adjusting the screw in the bottom! The set screw in the side prevents the point from being ejected due to the tension in the spring.

ONEWAY spurs have four aggressive teeth which bite into wood blanks.

There are types of Spurs:

• Chuck Spur
• Morse Taper Spur

NEW!! BIG BITE Chuck Spur

Woodturners are lucky in that turners get to use spectacularly figured woods that are rejected by other woodworkers. The difficult thing is trying to make the best use of the grain of these pieces. If a burl is mounted to a faceplate you have to make your best guess as to what is inside the burl when you are looking at the outside. The ideal solution to make the best use of a challenging piece of wood is to mount it between centers. Two prong spurs work better than four prong spurs for this because you have an easier time tilting the piece and two prongs drive board grain better than four prong spurs. Oneway is pleased to introduce the Oneway Big Bite Chuck Spur. At 3-3/4 inch diameter it easily drives pieces up to 24 inches in diameter but is safely contained inside the body diameter of even our smallest chuck.The spur has a 1 inch locating plug to center securely into the chuck and it is grabbed crosswise by the jaws for a secure hold. The teeth and point are 60 degrees so it will bite deeply and easily. It takes advantage of the holding power of the chuck making it very economical.

Chuck Spurs

Oneway Spurs are available to mount directly into the Stronghold, ONEWAY, and Talon Chucks. Because of this direct mounting capability, it is not necessary to remove the Chuck from your lathe to do spindle work.

Just open the jaws, insert the Chuck Spur and you're ready to turn spindles within seconds!

What sizes are available?

Our chuck spurs come in two sizes - ½" and 1". The ½" Chuck Spur is great from turning spindles that are less than 1" in diameter, whereas the 1" Chuck Spur will work best for spindles of dimater of 1" or larger. The 1" Chuck Spur is a lot more robust.

Both Chuck Spurs have a total length of 3 inches.

Morse Taper Spurs

For direct mounting to your spindle, spurs are available with #1 or #2 Morse Taper.
