DESCRIPTION
The Rotur Solid Dead Centre is an outstanding precision engineering tool perfect for both wood and metal lathes. Its one - piece construction combined with a 60 - degree point offers incredibly secure workholding. This dead centre can also be effectively used for TBC pen turning (turn between centres). The 2MT specification here is SC2.
Using the Rotur Solid Dead Centre is easy. First, make sure your lathe is turned off. Then, install the dead centre in the tailstock of your wood or metal lathe. Once it's properly installed, you can start your turning work. When turning, ensure the workpiece is firmly held between the dead centre and the headstock. For TBC pen turning, just place the pen blank between the two centres and start the lathe. As for maintenance, keep the dead centre clean. After each use, wipe it with a clean cloth to remove any debris. Store it in a dry place to prevent rust. And always be careful when handling it to avoid any damage to the 60 - degree point, as this is crucial for secure workholding.
