The mandrel features a 5\/8 inch face diameter and an overall length (OAL) of 5-1\/2 inches, making it suited for precision machining tasks where consistent concentricity and workpiece support are required. It is a shop-floor staple used by machinists and toolmakers working on lathe-based operations. The compact size and standard design allow it to integrate into common lathe setups without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mandrel is appropriate for general-purpose machine shop use in both production and maintenance environments. It supports between-centers turning operations where a workpiece must be driven and supported without distortion. Typical applications include finishing bored holes to final diameter, turning the outside diameter of a part concentric to its bore, and light cylindrical grinding work. It is handled by machinists and toolmakers in job shops, manufacturing facilities, and tool rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch face diameter for compatibility with standard workpiece bore sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-1\/2 inch overall length provides adequate support span for common turning operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard mandrel design fits conventional between-centers lathe setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact form factor at 0.46 pounds for easy handling and setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard between-centers lathe mandrel suitable for use on conventional engine lathes and cylindrical grinders that accept standard mandrel-drive setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists using standard lathe tooling and a press or mallet to seat the workpiece on the mandrel. Ensure the lathe is fully powered down and the spindle is locked before mounting or removing the mandrel between centers. The mandrel should be lightly coated with a thin film of oil before pressing on a workpiece to prevent galling and allow controlled removal after machining. Do not exceed the workpiece bore tolerance range appropriate for the mandrel diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.46 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 262-2040\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51718132859186,"sku":"262-2040","price":21.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/35639606a7a836574677113082020ae8.jpg?v=1788550153","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-262-2040-standard-lathe-mandrel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
