Features The tapered part is T10 steel, quenching hardness 60-62HRC, the main body part is made of high quality steel, durable to use. Designed for laps at medium speed and in a medium load environment. Well balanced and smooth for efficient turning. Ideal for supporting your work at the end of your lathe. Dust seal prevents cutting dust from entering the bearing, extending service time. High quality bearing design, using high speed bearings for high accuracy. Description: A lathe center is a tool that has been ground at a point to accurately position a part on an axis. It has an included angle of 60°. The main use of a center is to guarantee the production of concentric work; this allows the workpiece to be transferred between machining operations without any loss of precision. A workpiece can be rotated in a lathe, sent for quenching and tempering, and then ground between the tips in a cylindrical grinder. A center is also used to support longer workpieces where cutting forces would deflect work excessively, reducing the workpiece finish and accuracy. Specifications: Type: MT2.
