Description
The Widin Live Centre is a heavy‑duty live center for lathes, designed to minimize bite interference while delivering stable support for challenging turning work. It features NKBN nut‑type mounting and Morse tapers for quick, secure setup.
Sealed to prevent the inflow of cutting oils and foreign substances, this live center is built to endure busy workshop conditions and maintain reliable performance over time.
- Sealed protection against oils and debris: Keeps the center operating smoothly longer by preventing contaminants from entering the bearing area, reducing maintenance and downtime.
- Durable bearings and hardened shaft: Taper roller bearings paired with a shaft hardened to 58–62 HRC provide long life, exceptional rigidity, and minimal runout for repeatable accuracy (0.00012" or 0.003 mm).
- Morse tapers No. 3 & No. 6 with NKBN nut type: Offers versatile, secure mounting options and compatibility with common lathe spindles for fast, reliable setup.
This combination of sealing, hardened precision components, and flexible mounting makes the Widin Live Centre a dependable choice for high‑demand turning tasks, helping you achieve cleaner starts, tighter tolerances, and consistent results across a wide range of projects.
