Customer Reviews (5.0 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Isabella ★★★★★

Ground it on the lathe and it runs dead true—the hardened steel body feels rock solid. The 0.475" diameter fit perfectly into my tailstock, no wobble at all.

Zoe ★★★★★

The 60-degree angle on this center is spot on, and the carbide tip holds up well against hardened steel workpieces. It fits perfectly in my tailstock and spins true without any noticeable wobble.

Ruby V. ★★★★★

Ground it on a dead center for a while and the 60º point still spins true, no wobble at all. The 0.475" body fits my chuck perfectly, and the carbide tip has held its edge through a dozen steel pieces. Solid buy.
