Certified Jaw Nuts and Keys Provide High Tensile Strength and Enhance Safety
The products withstand the stress and mechanical forces applied by the greater horsepower, larger material cuts, and higher machine tool speeds that are common with today’s machine tools.

Manufactured from certified 4140 heat treated steel, Dillon Jaw Nuts and Keys provide superior wear and impact resistance, higher tensile strength, extended life, and safety, as compared to jaws made from case hardened 1018 steel. Designed specifically to withstand the stress and mechanical forces applied by the greater horsepower, larger material cuts, and higher machine tool speeds that are common with today’s machine tools. Dillon Jaw Nuts, T-nuts, and Keys are available to fit all popular power chucks. They are made in the USA in ISO 9000-2015 certified facilities, with standard sizes are stocked for immediate shipment. They are ideal for workholding applications requiring durability and high strength such as high-speed machining.
Jaws nuts made from case hardened 1018 CRS can fracture, crack, and break under high-speed machine stress loads, damaging workpieces and chucks, and endangering operators, but Dillon Jaw Nuts ensure operator and workpiece safety. Operator safety and chuck life are greatly improved by eliminating the use of low carbon jaws nuts and t-nut in the machining process.
Dillon also offers a special T-Nut design and manufacturing service for custom workhlolding requirements.
Dillon Jaw Nuts, T-nuts, and Keys are available to fit virtually all popular power chucks from 6” to 24” in diameter including Forkhardt, Gamet, Howa, Kitigawa, Matsumoto (MMK), Nikko, Pratt Burnerd, Rohm, Samchully, Schuck, SMW, SMW-Autoblok, and more.
