Description

The Widin Live Centre – Economical – Carbide Tipped – HDC Type – No.6 is a carbide-tipped live center designed to provide stable, true support for turning operations. Ideal for engineers, machinists, hobbyists, and shop floors alike, it delivers reliable performance at an economical price without compromising accuracy or durability.

No. 3 and No. 6 Morse tapers are available, giving you flexible compatibility with a wide range of lathes. Its C CAP rotation design helps prevent the inflow of foreign substances, helping keep the bearing area clean and reducing maintenance concerns over time.

  • Carbide-tipped durability: The carbide tip stands up to wear, extends service life, and maintains accurate center support through heavy cuts and demanding cycles.
  • Versatile Morse taper compatibility: Available in No. 3 and No. 6, enabling quick setup across multiple machines and expanding the range of projects you can tackle with a single center.
  • Low runout for precision turning: Achieves runout of 0.00012"/0.00024" (0.003 mm/0.006 mm), delivering concentric parts and smoother surface finishes on every job.

Designed to boost workflow and reliability, this live center helps you produce consistent, high-quality results with less downtime. It combines economical operation with dependable accuracy, giving you confidence in every part you produce and every pass you take on the lathe.
