Description

The Widin Live Centre is a heavy-duty lathe live center designed to provide stable, precise support for demanding turning workloads. Featuring a carbide-tipped point and a Nut Type NKD configuration (No.6), it delivers long tip life and reliable seating for repeatable accuracy at higher speeds. It’s built for shop environments where durability and consistent performance matter.

Morse taper options are available to fit a wide range of machines, including No. 3 and No. 6. The unit is sealed to prevent the inflow of cutting oils and foreign substances, helping maintain smooth operation and lower maintenance. A hardened shaft (58–62 HRC) paired with taper roller bearings delivers extended life and dependable performance, while an exceptionally tight runout of 0.00012 inches (0.003 mm) supports precise, high-quality finishes.

  • Carbide‑tipped design: Delivers longer tip life and stable center support for consistent machining at high speeds, reducing rework and downtime.
  • Sealed NKD Nut Type No.6: Keeps oils and debris out, ensuring clean operation and secure, repeatable seating in the spindle.
  • Low runout with hardened shaft and tapered bearings: 0.00012" runout (0.003 mm) and 58–62 HRC shaft provide reliable precision under heavy loads and over many cycles.

This live center is a reliable choice for engineers, machinists, and workshop technicians who demand consistent performance, reduced downtime, and straightforward compatibility with common Morse taps. Install it, trust its stability, and enjoy precision results across a broad range of turning applications.
