Description

Widin Live Centre is a heavy‑duty carbide‑tipped live center designed for lathes that demand reliable, precise support during high‑speed turning. The NKBCN No.4 nut‑type configuration provides robust grip and compatibility with common Morse tapers (No.3 and No.6). Its sealed design protects bearings from cutting oils and other contaminants, helping to minimize bite interference and keep your work running smoothly.

  • Carbide tipped design: Extends tool life and maintains stable center performance, reducing wear‑related rework and helping you achieve consistent results over more machining cycles.
  • Sealed NKBCN No.4 nut‑type design: Seals guard the bearing area from oils and debris, lowering maintenance needs and boosting uptime in demanding shop environments.
  • Ultra‑precise triplex bearing system: Paired with a hardened shaft (58–62 HRC) delivers exceptional rigidity and a near‑zero runout of 0.00012" (0.003 mm), ensuring smooth operation and repeatable accuracy even under tough loads.

Whether you’re a professional machinist, engineer, or hobbyist, this live center helps you achieve higher quality finishes, faster setup, and longer service life. The combination of carbide tipping, sealed protection, and a precision triplex bearing system translates to reliable performance, reduced downtime, and better overall workflow in demanding turning applications.
