Built from hardened tool steel, this center accepts a 5MT Morse taper shank and features a pipe nose point style suited for supporting hollow or tubular workpieces at the spindle end. The head diameter measures 3.5 inches, the point diameter measures 3.017 inches, and the overall length is 4.03 inches. Accuracy is held to 0.0001 inches, making it appropriate for precision turning operations. Installation is performed by qualified machinists or machine tool technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis solid dead center is intended for use in metal turning and machining operations where the workpiece is supported at the tailstock end. The pipe nose point geometry is specifically suited for centering tubular or pipe-end stock, preventing the point from entering the bore while still locating the part accurately. The 5MT Morse taper shank fits standard tailstocks and spindles dimensioned for a number 5 Morse taper. It is commonly used in production and job-shop lathe setups handling larger-diameter workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePipe nose point style supports hollow and tubular workpieces without entering the bore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardened tool steel construction for wear resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5MT Morse taper shank for secure, self-holding fit in compatible tailstocks and spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccuracy held to 0.0001 inches for precision machining applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid dead center design  -  no rotating components, no lubrication required at the center body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead diameter of 3.5 inches accommodates larger workpiece diameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned to fit machine tool tailstocks and spindles with a number 5 Morse taper (5MT) bore.

Use a properly sized drift bar and soft mallet to eject the center from the taper bore  -  never strike the center body directly. When using a solid dead center, apply an appropriate cutting or center lubricant to the workpiece contact area to reduce friction and heat buildup during long turning operations. Verify taper seating and center runout before beginning cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Center\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pipe Nose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardened Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarbide-Tipped\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Morse Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Taper Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5MT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.017 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.017 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5301 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.03 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint to Gauge Line\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.03 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.87 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: RITEN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 66105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RITEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67913875030322,"sku":"66105","price":828.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8d9e5b21c34d3cccc6037eda9dbb45bb.jpg?v=1791246862","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/riten-66105-solid-dead-center-5mt-pipe-nose-3-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
