This MT#1 Dead Center is made of tool steel which has been hardened and ground. It has a 60° point, is +/- .0002" TIR, 0.475" (12.065 mm) in diameter, and 3.15" (80 mm) in overall length.
For use with the between center bushings. Place the appropriately sized 60 degree dead center into the head stock and a 60 degree live center into the tail stock and you are ready to use the between center bushings. Due to the mandrel free design of the between center bushings your turning is much more stable and less susceptible to out of round problems.
