These sliding style lathe chuck guards slide via linear bearings over the top of the lathe headstock when opening. They are very convenient guards, easy to use and importantly to install. The mounting feet are adjustable for orientation and height and additionally the guards have readily available adjustment across the axis of the headstock. The SA Model guards are normally supplied with 2NC safety micro switches but they are available without the switch if another position control system is planned.
