Description
Widin Live Centre is a carbide-tipped live center designed for high-speed turning and extended service life. Built for engineers, shops, and hobbyists who demand reliable rotation at speed, it helps you achieve precise, repeatable results with minimal setup.
This SMP Type No.4 live center accepts common Morse taps No. 3 and No. 5, enabling flexible use across a range of lathes. It features upgraded bearings optimized for high-speed rotation, delivering durable performance and longer life than standard SM-type centers. The center also maintains excellent runout control to support tight tolerances during demanding work.
- Carbide-Tipped for Longevity and Precision: Carbide inserts resist wear and maintain accurate centering, helping parts come out true even at high speeds.
- Upgraded Bearings for High-Speed Rotation: Specially designed bearings ensure smooth, reliable rotation at fast spindle speeds, reducing heat and wear for longer center life.
- Low Runout and Morse-Taper Compatibility: Achieves tight tolerances with runout as low as 0.00012 in (0.003 mm); compatible with Morse Tapers No. 3 and No. 5 and SMP Type No. 4 for versatile installation.
With the Widin Live Centre, you gain reliable, repeatable performance that helps your workflow move faster. The carbide tip handles tough workpieces, the upgraded bearings minimize downtime through superior durability and smooth operation, and the low runout translates to cleaner finishes and tighter tolerances across jobs. A durable, versatile center that fits common lathes, it’s a smart choice for daily production or precision projects alike.
