Description

Widin Live Centre, Carbide Tipped, NCC Type No.3 is a high-precision live center designed for NC standard lathes. It provides steadfast support for rotating work with a carbide tip for extended cutting life, and it supports common Morse tapers—No.3 and No.6—so you can match your spindle configuration with ease.

This center is sealed to prevent the inflow of cutting oils and foreign substances, reducing maintenance and protecting bearing life. Its triplex bearing structure delivers superior rotational accuracy and durability, while the shaft is hardened to 58–62 HRC for lasting performance. With an ultra-tight runout specification of 0.00012" (0.003 mm), you can expect concentric, repeatable results on every part.

  • Carbide-tipped for longer tool life: The carbide tip resists wear and stays sharper longer, ensuring consistent finishes and fewer tool changes across a range of materials.
  • Sealed to resist oils and contaminants: A robust seal keeps cutting oils and debris out of the bearing, reducing maintenance and extending center life.
  • Low runout with triplex bearing: Triplex bearing design minimizes deflection for precise rotation, delivering repeatable diameters and smoother surface finishes with runout as low as 0.00012" (0.003 mm).

Designed for professional shops, engineers, and hobbyists alike, this live center enhances workflow by delivering reliable, repeatable performance with less setup and maintenance. Its carbide tip, sealed bearings, and precision construction help you achieve accurate centers, smoother finishes, and consistent results across demanding turning tasks.
