Description

The Widin Live Centre is a full carbide-tipped dead centre designed for turning between centers on lathes. This nut-type LM-CN configuration, No.3 variant, delivers precise support with exceptional wear resistance to help you maintain accurate alignment through long runs. Compatible with standard Morse-taper spindles, it is suitable for engineers, machinists, hobbyists, and shop floors seeking reliable, repeatable center support.

  • Carbide-tipped construction: Prolonged tip life and improved surface finish on a wide range of materials, even under heavy cutting or high-speed turning.
  • Low runout across No.1–No.7: Extremely tight alignment with runout as low as 0.00012" (0.003 mm) to 0.0002" (0.005 mm), ensuring true centering and consistent results every cut.
  • Nut-type LM-CN design for quick setup: Secure, easy mounting that minimizes setup time and reduces chatter, delivering dependable performance with fast tool changes.

Designed for demanding turning tasks, this live centre helps you achieve precise coaxiality, smoother rotation, and longer tool life. It supports faster workflows, reduces downtime, and delivers reliable, repeatable results across a wide range of applications from precision hobby work to production turning.
