Value Collection 262-4100 Expanding Lathe Arbor 1 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 262-4100 is an expanding lathe arbor designed to hold workpieces securely on a lathe during turning, boring, or finishing operations. The arbor expands to grip the internal bore of a workpiece, providing concentric, repeatable positioning without the need for external clamping. With a 1-inch face diameter and a 4-inch overall length (OAL), this arbor suits small to mid-size workpieces commonly encountered in machine shop and maintenance environments. Machinists and toolroom technicians reach for expanding arbors when accurate concentricity and positive internal gripping are required for the job.

This arbor is suited for general-purpose lathe work in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments. It handles workpieces with internal bores sized to accept the 1-inch face diameter, making it a practical choice for repeat runs where consistent part registration matters. It is typically installed by machinists or skilled trade professionals working with manual or CNC lathes requiring mandrel-style workholding.

Key Features

• 1-inch face diameter for gripping internal bores of matching size
• 4-inch overall length provides adequate reach for standard workholding setups
• Expanding design ensures concentric grip and repeatable part positioning
• Compact form factor suits small to mid-size turning applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose expanding arbor for use with lathes accepting mandrel-style workholding tooling with a 1-inch face diameter interface.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and bring the lathe spindle to a complete stop before mounting or removing the arbor. Verify the arbor shank is compatible with the lathe spindle nose or chuck before securing the workpiece. Follow standard shop safety practices and applicable machinery safety guidelines when setting up workholding equipment.
