Description
The Widin Live Centre No.5 (NCPBCN Type) is a heavy lathe live center designed for demanding turning tasks. Carbide tipped to minimize bite interference, it provides steady support and helps improve surface finish even under high-load cutting. Built for professionals, shops, and serious hobbyists, this unit delivers reliable performance where precision matters most.
Morse Tapers No. 3 and No. 6 are supported, and the center is sealed to prevent the inflow of cutting oils and foreign substances. Upgraded bearings arranged in a triplex configuration offer improved durability and longer life compared with NC TYPE H, while the shaft is heat-treated to 58–62 HRC for superior rigidity. With a runout of 0.00012" (0.003 mm), you get consistently accurate centering across the full range of turning operations.
- Carbide-Tipped Design: Minimizes bite interference to maintain true alignment, reduce chatter, and deliver cleaner finishes on tough materials.
- Sealed, Triplex-Bearing Construction: Guards against oils and contaminants while providing high-precision rotation and extended service life in demanding environments.
- Rigid, Low-Runout Shaft (58–62 HRC): Ensures repeatable accuracy with ultra-tight runout (0.00012" / 0.003 mm) for reliable parts every pass.
Designed to enhance reliability and efficiency, the Widin No.5 Live Centre supports quicker setups, consistent tolerances, and longer intervals between maintenance—making it a dependable choice for precision turning in both shop floors and home workshops.
