What chuck do these jaws fit?

I have a set of 2" jaws that I'm wondering what chuck they fit. The hole pattern is the same as a Nova G3, oneway tommy bar chuck and the oneway talon but the raised portion on the bottom of the jaws does not match the groove in the chuck. However the raised portion does match the groove on the oneway stronghold chuck, but the screw hole pattern doesn't match. Hope someone can shed some light on this matter.

Thanks kindly,
Scott

They look like the Vicmarc shark jaws on the inside, but unlike the Vicmarc they don't also have the shark jaw teeth on the outside. Perhaps they are 3rd party jaws made to fit on a Vicmac chuck. There are a few of those out there.

To check to see if they would fit on a Vicmarc VM90/100, see my recent post...


The centre of the screw holes on the Nova and Vicmarc VM90/100 jaws are the same distance apart, but the Nova use 6mm screws and the Vicmarc 5mm. And, just to be confusing, the larger Vicmarc VM120/140/150 chuck jaws also use a 6mm screw, but those little jaws aren't going to fit on any of the larger Vicmarc chucks.
