26" x 130" Large Spindle Bore Gear Head Lathe(GH-26130ZH)

Stock Number
JT1-2718

The JET GH-26130ZH is the most capable and longest-bed machine in the JET Large Spindle Bore lineup — engineered for oilfield, energy, heavy fabrication, and industrial operations that machine long, large-diameter components daily.


With an extended 130 inches between centers, a commanding 26" swing, and a massive 4.5" spindle bore, the GH-26130ZH is built to handle heavy pipe, drill collars, oilfield shafts, hydraulic cylinders, structural rods, and oversized industrial components in a single setup.


The 15HP, 3-phase motor delivers sustained torque for deep roughing passes and high-load cutting conditions. The D1-11 spindle nose supports heavy-duty workholding systems designed for high-mass components and industrial clamping forces.


The one-piece cast iron base provides the mass and structural rigidity required to maintain alignment across the full 130" bed length. This reduces vibration, limits deflection, and supports consistent surface finishes on long, heavy workpieces.


Twelve spindle speeds (10–1000 RPM) allow operators to balance torque and precision across threading, boring, grooving, and heavy turning operations. The 35" swing over gap further expands clearance for flanges and oversized components.


Designed for demanding industrial environments, the GH-26130ZH includes:



  • Electronic chuck key holder

  • Foot brake for rapid stopping

  • Chuck guard at the point of operation

  • Full-length splash guard

  • Lead screw cover

  • Integrated coolant system

  • UL 987 Certification


Each machine is inspected prior to shipment and backed by a 2-year parts and labor warranty, delivering predictable ownership and long-term reliability.


For oil & gas suppliers, pipeline contractors, energy-sector manufacturers, heavy repair facilities, and industrial OEMs, the GH-26130ZH delivers maximum length capacity, true large-bore performance, and industrial-grade durability.



130" Between Centers — Maximum Length Capacity Machine long pipe, drill components, hydraulic cylinders, and structural shafts in a single setup to reduce repositioning and maintain alignment.
Massive 4.5" Spindle Bore Accommodates large-diameter pipe and thick-wall tubing through the headstock — ideal for oilfield and energy applications.
15HP High-Torque Industrial Power Delivers sustained cutting performance under heavy load and deep material removal conditions.
26" Swing with 35" Swing Over Gap Provides clearance for oversized cylindrical components and large flange work.
D1-11 Heavy-Duty Spindle Nose Supports industrial workholding systems for high-mass parts and demanding clamping requirements.
One-Piece Cast Iron Bed for Long-Part Stability Engineered to maintain alignment and reduce vibration across the full 130" bed length.
Certified Safety Built In UL 987 Certified with integrated foot brake, electronic chuck key holder, chuck guard, and lead screw cover.
Built for Industrial Uptime Pre-shipment inspected and backed by a 2-year parts and labor warranty.
