Description
The Widin Live Centre is a carbide-tipped, high-speed live center designed for precise turning. It minimizes bite interference and delivers smooth, consistent rotation at high RPM, making it ideal for professionals and hobbyists who demand clean finishes and reliable performance.
Built for durability and easy integration, it is available in SMPBC Type with Morse Tapers No. 3 or No. 5. Upgraded special bearings support high-speed rotation, delivering longer life and improved resistance to wear, with a tight runout of 0.00012" (0.003 mm) to ensure accurate centering.
- Carbide-Tipped for Long Life: The carbide tip resists wear during heavy cutting, preserving tip geometry and reducing bite interference for consistent centering and finishes over many cycles.
- Upgraded High-Speed Bearings for Durability: Special bearings are engineered for high RPMs, delivering smoother rotation, less heat buildup, and a longer service life than standard SM-type centers.
- Morse Taper Compatibility (No. 3 & No. 5): Quick, secure mounting on machines using No. 3 or No. 5 Morse taps, enabling reliable alignment and repeatable results with minimal runout.
Designed to enhance workflow, the Widin Live Centre reduces setup time, minimizes bite interference, and delivers repeatable precision across parts. Its carbide-tipped tip, robust bearings, and tight runout translate into improved finish quality, faster cycles, and renewed confidence in every cut—whether in a busy shop or a dedicated workshop.
