About the Standard 1⅝” Handwheel
The 1⅝” handwheels are the standard handwheels that ship with many of our machines, including the lathe tailstock and our 4″ rotary table. They can be used on either a lathe or a mill. See Figure 1 for proper handwheel-to-axis orientation for each machine.
When upgrading handwheels, consider also the adjustable “zero” handwheels. They are available in 2″ and 2½” diameters and can make keeping track of dimensions easier.
Handwheel graduations:
Inch: 50-divisions
Metric: 100-divisions
