- Combining the durability and strength of Meehanite castings with precision engineering, Elite Geared Head Lathes turn out high quality components turn after turn. Designed with a universal gearbox to allow for a wide range of threading without gear changes, and Turcite-B coatings between the bed and carriage to provide smooth and accurate movement, these machines provide the perfect blend of performance and reliability you can come to expect from JET Elite.
