The components can be purchased separately or come as a complete set, which includes a dead center, tracer point, bull-nose point, carbide-tip point, male point, half point and a point extractor. The company says that accuracy is guaranteed to ± 0.0002.
The company will also display a line of dead centers for Mazak CNC lathes manufactured with Mazak’s taper. Selections include steel or carbide-tipped points, and the company says that accuracy is guaranteed to ±0.00005.Related Content
