It provides fast, repeatable tool changes without losing center height reference, making it a standard choice for production and job-shop turning operations. The tool post stands 6.125 inches overall, with a tool post height of 5.125 inches and a centerline height range of 1.1875 to 2.3125 inches. It indexes through 24 positions and ships with a mounting wrench. Installation is performed by machinists and lathe operators on manual engine lathes and toolroom lathes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CXA series fits mid-size engine lathes with 13 to 18 inch swing capacity. It is used in both production environments and toolroom settings where frequent tool changes and repeatable setups are required. The 3\/4-inch bolt hole diameter accommodates standard compound rest T-slots in this lathe size class. The 24-position indexing ring allows the operator to quickly rotate and lock the post at consistent, pre-set angles without remeasuring center height on every change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWedge-type locking mechanism for rigid, repeatable tool holding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24 indexing positions for fast angular adjustments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenterline height range of 1.1875 to 2.3125 inches covers a wide range of chuck and center heights\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall height of 6.125 inches with a tool post height of 5.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch bolt hole diameter fits standard compound rest mounting studs in the 13 to 18 inch swing class\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes mounting wrench for immediate installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for manual engine lathes and toolroom lathes with a swing capacity of 13 to 18 inches and a compound rest bolt hole diameter of 3\/4 inch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a qualified machinist or lathe operator.
