Vaste draaipunt MT2, 60° punt, gelegeerd staal, 0,005 mm precisie, 105 mm lengte

On a busy shop floor, a machinist sets up a lathe for a long shaft job. The tailstock needs a center that won’t budge under load. This fixed turning center slides into the MT2 socket, the 60° point seats into the workpiece’s center hole, and the ground shank locks in solid. No movement, no chatter—just a true axis from start to finish.

Why choose it

The hardened tip resists wear even in daily production runs, while the ground and polished finish ensures smooth insertion and removal from the tailstock. With concentricity under 0.005 mm, you get repeatable centering that keeps your tolerances tight. The solid MT2 shank transmits force directly, so there’s no flex or vibration at the point of contact.

Ideal use cases

• Supporting long workpieces between centers on a lathe
• Precision grinding operations where a dead center is required
• Milling setups that need a fixed reference in the tailstock
• Toolroom and maintenance work on manual machines

Good to know

This is a fixed (dead) center—it does not rotate with the workpiece. Use proper lubrication on the center point to prevent friction and heat buildup. The MT2 taper fits standard tailstocks and headstocks with a matching socket. Always clean the taper and socket before installation to maintain accuracy.
