It mounts via a Morse Taper 5 (MT5) shank and supports rotating workpieces between centers during turning operations. The double bearing design allows the point to spin freely with the workpiece, reducing friction and heat buildup at high RPMs. The standard 60-degree included angle point has a 1.5-inch diameter and a point length of 1.9063 inches. This center is rated for workpiece weights up to 1,590 pounds and carries a load capacity of 1,397 pounds, making it suitable for heavy-duty turning applications. It is installed by machinists and lathe operators in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis live center is used in lathe setups requiring between-centers support of medium to large diameter workpieces. The 2-9\/32-inch head diameter and MT5 shank suit lathes with larger spindle bores common in industrial and heavy-duty shop machines. The standard point style is appropriate for general-purpose turning on steel and similar materials. It weighs 9 pounds and is built from steel construction throughout. Machinists working with long shafts, axles, or similar cylindrical parts benefit from the high load rating and double bearing arrangement this center provides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMT5 Morse Taper shank for secure, repeatable mounting in compatible lathe tailstocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble bearing construction supports free rotation of the point under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard 60-degree included angle point suits general-purpose between-centers turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum workpiece weight rating of 1,590 pounds for heavy-duty applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoad capacity of 1,397 pounds with accuracy of 0.0002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction throughout for durability in production environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in lathe tailstocks accepting a Morse Taper 5 (MT5) shank, typical of industrial and heavy-duty engine lathes requiring between-centers workpiece support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a qualified machinist or lathe operator. Power down and lock out the lathe before inserting or removing the center from the tailstock. Clean the MT5 taper and tailstock bore thoroughly before seating to ensure accurate alignment and prevent fretting.
