Description

Widin Live Centre - Full Tipped Dead Centre - Carbide Tipped - LM-C Type - NO.5 is a precision dead center designed for consistent, high-accuracy turning on lathes. The carbide-tipped point provides robust wear resistance and stable support, making it a reliable choice for engineers, machinists, and workshops that demand repeatable results and longer service life.

  • Carbide-tipped center for extended life: The carbide tip stands up to heavy use and abrasive materials, delivering longer service life and steadier support to improve finish quality and reduce frequent replacements.
  • Ultra-tight runout: Achieves exceptional concentricity with Run Out 0.00012" to 0.0002" (0.003 mm to 0.005 mm), helping you maintain precise part geometry and smoother machining cycles.
  • Morse taper versatility (No.1–No.7): Designed to fit a wide range of machines, the LM-C Type No.5 center accepts Morse taps No.1 through No.7, enabling flexible use across different lathes without sacrificing accuracy.

This live center supports efficient workflows by delivering reliable centering, reducing setup time, and maintaining consistent runout across demanding turning tasks. With its carbide tip, durable construction, and broad taper compatibility, it’s a dependable component for achieving repeatable, high-quality results on both prototype work and production runs.
