Live lathe centres are essential tailstock tooling used to support rotating workpieces during turning, ensuring accuracy, stability, and smooth rotation at both low and high spindle speeds. Each centre features a hardened body and a precision‑ground rotating point supported by high‑quality bearings, allowing the workpiece to spin freely while maintaining exceptional concentricity. These centres are widely used in general engineering, toolrooms, maintenance workshops, and CNC environments where consistent support is vital for producing accurate diameters, reducing chatter, and improving surface finish. Their robust construction enables them to withstand heavy loads, continuous operation, and demanding machining conditions while minimising runout and vibration. Available in a range of Morse taper sizes, live centres are compatible with a wide variety of lathes—from small bench machines to industrial‑grade production equipment. Their reliable rotation and load‑carrying capability make them suitable for shaft work, precision finishing, long components, and applications requiring stable support throughout the machining cycle.
