Version:
Point angle 60°, surfaces ground.
Half point with deep inserted carbide centre. This offers particularly good access for the turning tool to the end face of the component.
The carbide tipped lathe centres are marked with a groove to indicate maximum regrinding allowance.
Description:
Lathe centres are mainly used on lathes to support long and slim workpieces, since with these workpieces there would otherwise be a risk of the workpiece bending or moving around as a result of the forces generated.
The lathe centre is secured with a Morse taper. The workpiece is clamped in the chuck and a counterbore is added using a centre drill. After re-clamping, the lathe centre is then inserted.
Standard:
DIN 806
