Vevor 3 jaw chuck unboxed & not happy

Opening the box of my new 3 jaw chuck and things looked pretty bad in the beginning but all is good in the end.

I just bought a 4” three jaw Vevor for my rotary welding positioner. You don’t need a great chuck for that. What people have to understand is that it’s just amazing that they can make equipment for these prices. But in understanding that, you also have to realize that they have to save money where they can. So an extra cleaning cycle and deburring parts that don’t affect the function are not done. Sometimes, I find some burrs on parts that shouldn’t have them. Overall, everything that is cheap should be taken apart, cleaned and deburred, if necessary. Just think of that as your part of the savings. One guy recently bought a Vevor 10” 4 jaw chuck for $125. Through the entire process of taking it apart, cleaning and deburring it, he was giggling and complaining that it wasn’t made like a more expensive product. Some people don’t get it and just think that complaining about cheap Chinese (or Indian, now) products makes them seem as though they know more than they obviously do. My little 4” chuck was also tight when the jaws got to the center. Some deburring with a small diamond file fixed the problem. Here, he understands that it’s to be expected, and he fixes it without the nonsense complaiming I see in too many other channels.

I totally agree with you, I paid $85 for this chuck and regardless of the 1 jaw being oversized, I was able to spot the problem and easily fix it, that was the purpose of this video, for the prices, this stuff is great but be realistic, you may need to spend time getting the stuff to work as good as you'd like. I never once complained about my purchase and I'll continue to keep buying Vevor products.

@@johnnyciantar I seem to have more Vevor products that I ever expected to have. Some of them without even knowing they were from Vevor when I bought them. Some are pretty good and some really need a lot of work such as the 3 ton ratcheting arbor press.

I find their equipment not to bad for the price. My last chuck worked fine but they are not top of the range. that will cost 6 to 10 time the price. I have had top brand goods that have been so bad and after service non existent that I now refuse to pay for a brand name.

I agree, even though this chuck had an issue, it all worked out good in the end.

I have found that most Chinese made lathe and milling tools need deburring.

Except Shars Tools. Perfect every time and always above specs.
