DESCRIPTION
The Rotur Piloted Drive and Counterbore Centre is a versatile tool ideal for all spindle work and long - hole boring. When crafting lamp stands, the counterbore insert precisely centers the drive centre in a 5/16' hole. Its 4 - prong head is perfect for squared spindle ends, with each prong evenly penetrating the timber for a strong grip. The head has relief behind the flutes to avoid binding. When using the centre - point insert, it extends beyond the prongs for quick and easy alignment. The sharp point and prongs can effortlessly dig into the timber, ensuring a secure hold. You can easily remove the drive centre from the lathe using the Rotur knockout bar (TKO265). This product comes with an interchangeable point, counterbore, and hex key. It is machined from high - quality EN8M Steel with a one - piece design to prevent the integral points from loosening. Available in 1MT, 2MT, and 3MT, and proudly made in the UK by Planet Plus Ltd. 2MT: 0142B
