Daniel ★★★★★

The 60-degree point seated perfectly in my lathe's headstock, and the hardened steel feels solid. I checked it with a tenths indicator and it was dead true right out of the box.

Lily D. ★★★★★

I was replacing a worn-out dead center on my lathe and this one’s hardened steel body feels noticeably more solid than the old one. The 60-degree point seated perfectly into my workpiece with no wobble. For the price, you get precise ground accuracy that’s hard to beat.

Eli J. ★★★★★

Used one to set up a new tailstock on my South Bend – the 0.475" diameter fit perfectly without any slop. That hardened steel point held up to some heavy cuts, and the grind is dead-on accurate.
