고정 센터, 3MT, 초경 팁, 반 노치

I was worried the half-notch wouldn't seat properly in my tailstock, but the 60º point engages dead-on every time. The 0.938" body slid in with zero wobble, and the carbide tip has already taken a few heavy abuse cycles without chipping.

The hardened steel body feels rock-solid in the tailstock, and the half-notch held my workpiece without any slipping. It's noticeably heavier than my old dead center, which gives me more confidence for repetitive turning jobs.

The 60-degree tip seats dead-on in a center drill every time, and the hardened steel body has held up through a dozen setups without a single nick. The 0.938" diameter gives a solid grip in the chuck, and the half-notch tracks true—this one’s a keeper.
