Widin Live Centre - Half Tipped Dead Centre - LM-HN Type - NO.4

The Widin Half-Tipped Dead Centre, LM-HN Type, No.4, is a precision lathe center designed to support workpieces with steady, concentric accuracy. Its half-tipped dead center design helps minimize bite and heat buildup, delivering smoother finishes on longer or delicate parts.

Designed to fit standard Morse tapers, this centre offers flexibility with Morse taper options No.1 through No.7, enabling secure and compatible use across a wide range of lathes. The No.4 size provides a balanced combination of rigidity and accessibility for everyday workshop tasks.

• Low runout for true accuracy: achieve runout as tight as 0.00012" to 0.0002" (0.003–0.005 mm) to keep your work perfectly concentric during turning and finishing passes.
• Half-tipped design reduces bite interference: minimized bite interaction improves surface quality and lowers heat buildup, helping protect delicate workpieces.
• Wide Morse taper range for secure fit: available across No.1–No.7 tapers, ensuring a reliable, adapter-free connection to a broad range of lathes and setups.

In everyday use, this centre translates to smoother setup, less rework from misalignment, and consistent results across multiple parts. Its durable construction and precise tolerances support dependable performance from quick hobby projects to more demanding turning tasks, giving you confidence and faster, repeatable results with every job.
