Description

Precision That Doesn’t Flinch: The Vertex VLC-215

When you’re turning heavy workpieces at high speeds, “good enough” is a recipe for chatter, ruined finishes, or worse. You need a center that handles the heat and the weight without breaking a sweat.

The Vertex VLC-215 Heavy Duty Live Centre is engineered for the machinist who demands absolute stability and long-term reliability.

Why the VLC-215 Belongs in Your Tailstock:

  • Triple Bearing Support: Unlike standard centers, the VLC-215 utilizes a combination of needle roller bearings, thrust bearings, and deep groove ball bearings. This trio distributes both radial and axial loads evenly, ensuring smooth rotation under extreme pressure.

  • Hardened to Last: The head is forged from High Carbon Alloy Steel and vacuum heat-treated to HRC 60° ± 2°. It’s tough enough to resist wear and maintain its point geometry through years of heavy-duty cycles.

  • High-Speed Stability: Rated for high RPMs without the vibration, it allows you to push your feed rates and surface speeds to maximize shop throughput.

  • Coolant-Proof Seal: Features a specialized front seal that keeps dust, chips, and coolant out of the bearings, significantly extending the tool’s lifespan.
