Standard Dead Centers
- Typically used for grinding, although sometimes also used for high precision turning.
- For carbide-tipped models, the carbide blank is brazed into a close-tolerance socket for maximum strength and rigidity.
- “Half” models provide exceptional grinding wheel clearance.
CNC Threaded Dead Centers
- Designed for use on CNC turning centers with live tailstocks.
- Extraction nut ensures easy removal and eliminates the risk of tailstock bearing damage.
- Three standard models to choose from:
- Carbide-tipped
- CNC (extra clearance)
- Full diameter
Oversized Carbide Point Dead Center
- Excellent for both grinding and high precision turning applications.
- Oversized carbide point covers a wider range of center holes and provides outstanding wear resistance.
- Carbide blank is brazed into a close-tolerance socket for maximum strength and rigidity.
“Oil Country” Bull Head Dead Centers
- Specifically designed for turning large tubes and pipes on lathes with live tailstocks.
- Five interchangeable heads offer maximum versatility, covering pipe and tube bore sizes ranging from 1.75” to 15.5”
- Extraction nut ensures easy removal and eliminates the risk of tailstock bearing damage.
