Description

Widin Live Centre is a heavy‑duty, carbide‑tipped live center designed for NKC type mounting on lathes. It’s built to handle demanding turning tasks and is compatible with Morse tapers No. 3 and No. 6, making it a versatile choice for shops, technicians, and hobbyists alike.

The construction prioritizes durability and reliable performance. The carbide tip delivers long wear life for consistent support, while the sealed design protects against cutting oils and contaminants, reducing maintenance and downtime so you can keep working longer between service intervals.

  • Carbide-tipped for long life: Hardened wear resistance of the carbide nose maintains stable support and finish under heavy use.
  • Sealed against oils and contaminants: Seals keep cutting fluids and foreign matter out of the center, extending life and reducing cleaning and maintenance.
  • Ultra-precise, rigid drive: Shaft hardened to 58–62 HRC with taper roller bearings delivers minimal runout (0.00012" / 0.003 mm) for repeatable accuracy; compatible with NKC Type No. 6 and Morse tapers No. 3 and No. 6.

This combination of toughness, precision, and versatility helps improve finishing quality, shorten setup and changeover times, and deliver dependable results across a range of turning applications.
