Description Precision Where Others Can’t Reach When your workpiece demands high-speed stability but offers limited clearance, standard live centres just won’t cut it. The Vertex VLC-213B Extended Nose Live Centre is engineered to bridge that gap, providing the extra reach necessary for intricate lathe operations. Why the VLC-213B Stands Out Extended Point Geometry: The elongated nose allows for superior tool access, making it the perfect choice for small-diameter work or machining close to the end of the part. Triple Bearing Design: Equipped with a combination of heavy-duty needle rollers, thrust bearings, and deep-groove ball bearings to handle both axial and radial loads with ease. Hardened to Perfection: The center point is crafted from heat-treated alloy steel, hardened to HRC 60 ± 2, ensuring long-term wear resistance and consistent accuracy. High-Speed Capability: Designed to maintain low vibration and high concentricity even at elevated RPMs. Maximize Your Lathe’s Potential Don’t let clearance issues slow down your production. Whether you’re working on delicate components or heavy-duty shafts, the Vertex VLC-213B delivers the “reach-in” capability you need without sacrificing the rigidity you demand. Pro Tip: The VLC-213B features a specialized oil seal to prevent coolant and dust ingress, significantly extending the tool’s lifespan in high-production environments.
