It mounts via a 2MT Morse taper shank and features a head diameter of 2.125 inches, a point diameter of 0.969 inches, and a point length of 0.969 inches. The tip diameter measures 1.000 inch and accuracy is held to 0.0001 inches. This type of dead center is used in lathe and turning applications where the workpiece rotates around the stationary center point. Machinists and tool room technicians install and service these components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RITEN 66602 is suited for lathe tailstock applications in machine shop environments. The bull nose profile accommodates workpieces with center-drilled ends, distributing contact across a broader surface than a standard 60-degree point. The 2MT Morse taper shank fits standard tailstock quills sized for a No. 2 Morse taper, which is common on bench lathes and mid-size engine lathes. This center is intended for static use; the workpiece revolves on the fixed point, making it appropriate for lower-speed operations or applications where a live center is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBull nose point style provides broad contact surface for center-drilled workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHardened tool steel construction for wear resistance and dimensional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2MT Morse taper shank for direct tailstock quill mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccuracy held to 0.0001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTip diameter of 1.000 inch with a head diameter of 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid (non-carbide-tipped) center for straightforward reconditioning if needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or new-installation dead center for lathe tailstocks accepting a No. 2 Morse taper (2MT) shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or tool room personnel. Power down and lock out the lathe before inserting or removing the center from the tailstock quill. Clean the taper bore and shank with a lint-free cloth before seating to ensure full contact and concentricity. For solid dead center use, apply appropriate cutting fluid or grease to the contact point to reduce heat and wear during operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Dead Center\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bull Nose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardened Tool Steel\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: 2MT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.969 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.969 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.000 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.906 inches (29\/32)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint to Gauge Line\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.969 inches (1-31\/32)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarbide-Tipped\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.45 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 66602\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RITEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67915316330802,"sku":"66602","price":595.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a9f86e33f5b3d2ee6596e723814dcff3.jpg?v=1791253096","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/riten-66602-bull-nose-solid-dead-center-2mt-morse-taper","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
