The Precision Light Live Centre MT3 DM315 is engineered for light-duty turning applications requiring smooth rotation and reliable workpiece support. Designed for use on lathes and CNC machines, this live centre minimizes friction during operation, allowing higher speeds and improved machining accuracy. Constructed from hardened alloy steel with a precision-ground tip, the DM315 delivers excellent durability and concentric performance. Its internal high-precision bearing system ensures stable rotation, while the sealed design helps prevent coolant and debris ingress—extending tool life and maintaining consistent accuracy in workshop and production environments. Key Features & Benefits MT3 Morse taper for compatibility with standard lathe tailstocks Light-duty design ideal for precision and smaller workpieces High-precision bearing system for smooth, low-friction rotation Hardened and ground centre point for improved accuracy Sealed construction protects against coolant and contamination Enhances surface finish and machining stability Suitable for general machining, toolroom, and maintenance work Technical Specifications Model: DM315 Type: Precision Light Live Centre Taper: MT3 Application: Light-duty turning operations Material: Hardened alloy steel (typically 40Cr) Accuracy: Approx. 0.005–0.006mm Max Speed: Up to ~4500 RPM (MT3 typical) Max Load: Approx. 800 kg (light-duty range) Live centres rotate on internal bearings to reduce friction between the workpiece and the support point, enabling higher machining speeds and better finish compared to dead centres. The Precision Light Live Centre MT3 DM315 is a dependable solution for machinists seeking consistent accuracy, reduced wear, and smooth performance in light-duty turning applications.
