Machined from hardened tool steel, this center accepts a 2MT Morse taper shank and delivers a standard point style with a head diameter of 0.7 inches and an overall length of 4.187 inches. The 71021 holds an accuracy rating of 0.00005 inches, making it suitable for precision turning applications where runout control is critical. Machinists and tool-room technicians use solid dead centers when a rigid, non-rotating support point is required at the tailstock or between centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis center is applied in manual and CNC lathe setups for turning, grinding, and between-centers work across light to medium workloads. The 2MT shank fits standard tailstocks and headstocks equipped with a No. 2 Morse taper socket. The standard point geometry suits general-purpose turning of steel, aluminum, and similar materials. Point-to-gauge-line length of 1.625 inches provides consistent positioning reference during setup. No carbide tip is present, so this center is best suited for applications where the workpiece or fixture rotates rather than the center itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHardened tool steel construction for wear resistance and rigidity under turning loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2MT Morse taper shank for direct mounting in compatible tailstock and headstock sockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard point style with 0.7 inch head diameter and 0.7 inch point diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccuracy rating of 0.00005 inches for precision between-centers work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKnockout diameter of 0.572 inches for straightforward removal from the taper socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid (non-rotating) design provides a stable, rigid support point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style solid dead center for lathes and turning centers equipped with a No. 2 Morse taper tailstock or headstock socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or tool-room technicians. Ensure the lathe is powered down and the spindle is fully stopped before inserting or removing the center from the taper socket. Clean the taper bore and shank of any chips or oil film before seating to ensure full contact and accurate alignment. Use the knockout bar through the tailstock bore to remove the center cleanly without damage to the taper surfaces.\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\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\u003ePoint Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.187 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint to Gauge Line\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnockout Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.572 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.00005 inches\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: 71021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RITEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67912252817714,"sku":"71021","price":165.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5b3faa53bcf8bf6b89710eed794071c4.jpg?v=1791231037","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/riten-71021-solid-dead-center-2mt-morse-taper-0-7-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
