Description

Widin Live Centre is a heavy-duty live center designed for precision turning on lathes. Built with a carbide-tipped tip and NKBCN nut-type housing, it’s optimized for demanding workloads and consistent performance. It’s available in Morse tapers No. 3 and No. 6 to match a wide range of spindle configurations.

The design emphasizes reliability and longevity. Sealed to prevent the inflow of cutting oils and foreign substances, it keeps critical bearings clean and protected. Upgraded bearings and a shaft heat-treated to 58–62 HRc deliver durability and long life, so you can count on stable centering across long runs. A remarkably tight runout of 0.00012 inches (0.003 mm) enhances rotational accuracy for smooth, precise turning.

  • Ultra-low runout with robust bearing system: Triplex bearing structure and a hard-seated shaft deliver exceptional rotational accuracy (as low as 0.00012" / 0.003 mm) for consistent part concentricity and superior finish, even on long cycles.
  • Sealed, contamination-resistant design: The sealed construction blocks cutting oils and debris from reaching bearings, reducing maintenance and extending center life in tough workshop environments.
  • Carbide-tipped tip with NKBCN nut-type housing: Combines wear-resistant carbide with a durable nut-type assembly to withstand heavy loads and demanding materials, delivering reliable performance and longer service intervals.

This live center helps you maintain tight tolerances, improve surface finish, and minimize downtime. Its combination of precision, protection, and rugged construction translates to faster setups, fewer interruptions, and dependable results across a wide range of turning applications.
