Overview
The 1999-833 bull nose live center lathe tool is a specialized metalworking accessory built from precision hardened steel. Bull-nose centers are specialized lathe centers used to support large, hollow, or cylindrical workpieces during machining, featuring a broad, rounded tip that ensures stable and precise positioning of the workpiece. The rounded nose design accommodates oversized center holes and prevents workpiece slippage during turning operations.
Key Features
- Precision hardened steel construction – Manufactured to precision from case hardened steel
- Broad, rounded nose tip – Essential for accurate turning operations, particularly when working with pipe, tubing, or other large-diameter materials
- Rotating live center – Preloaded bearings reduce friction and heat generation during machining
- Heavy-duty design – Oil field maintenance facilities, manufacturers of power generation components, and pipe manufacturers all rely on the durability of heavy duty bull nose live centers
Technical Specifications
The 1999-833 features high hardness and concentricity standards typical of industrial-grade live centers. Precision hardened steel components ensure long service life under repetitive metalworking loads. Taper shank design provides secure mounting in standard lathe tailstocks.
Typical Applications
- CNC lathe turning operations on pipe and tubing
- Large-bore workpiece support where center hole exceeds standard dimensions
- Metalworking shops and manufacturing facilities
- Precision machining of hollow cylinders and cylindrical components
- Industrial maintenance and repair work
