RÖHM Live Centre Slim MK5 with Extended Pilot — 60° Tip, MK5 Taper

The RÖHM Live Centre Slim MK5 with extended pilot is a lathe centre engineered for precision, supporting heavy workpieces while maintaining low runout and allowing access in confined fixtures.

• Slim design for restricted access
• Supports up to 1,400 kg axial load
• Runout max. 0.01 mm for precision
• Max. 4,300 rpm for high-speed turning

Achieve consistent concentricity in critical turning

High-precision applications demand reproducible positioning and minimal deviation. The slim centre delivers a runout of 0.01 mm, which reduces rework and measurement scatter in turned parts. The 60° tip angle and defined tip length ensure stable contact and repeatable alignment during through-centre support, translating technical accuracy into fewer setup iterations and higher first-pass yield.

Secure heavy components without compromise

For heavy-duty support, the combination of robust construction and rated capacity matters. The unit is specified for a maximum workpiece weight of 1,400 kg, providing the structural basis for supporting large shafts and rings during finishing or rough-turning operations. The centre’s bearing and housing dimensions contribute to load distribution, so machining cycles remain stable and tool life is preserved.

Maintain access in restricted bores and fixtures

A slim profile with an extended pilot length of 51.5 mm enables engagement in deeper centres and narrow workpiece geometries where standard centres cannot reach. The compact housing diameter of 58 mm and projection of 119 mm minimise interference with tooling and allow closer approach of cutting tools, improving chip evacuation and enabling more flexible clamping strategies on compact lathes.

Integrate with common machine tapers and speeds

The live centre fits an MK5 shank and presents a shank diameter of 44.399 mm, facilitating direct compatibility with standard taper adaptors and collet fixtures. Rated for up to 4,300 rpm, it supports a broad range of turning speeds from coarse to finish operations while its overall weight of 2.6 kg keeps inertia low for responsive dynamic behaviour. These attributes simplify retrofitting into existing shops and reduce the need for special adaptions.

FAQ

What level of concentricity can be expected with this live centre?

The RÖHM live centre Slim MK5 delivers a runout specification of 0.01 mm, which supports high-precision turning and repeatable part quality when the centre is used under the stated conditions.

Is the slim pilot suitable for deep-diameter workpieces?

Yes, the extended pilot length of 51.5 mm is designed to reach deeper centres and provide stable support in narrow bore geometries while maintaining alignment.

Which machine taper is required for mounting this centre?

The unit is supplied with an MK5 shank execution and a shank diameter of 44.399 mm, allowing direct insertion into compatible MK5 spindles or adaptors.

What is the maximum rotational speed for reliable operation?

The live centre is rated for up to 4,300 rpm; operating within this limit ensures bearing life and positional stability.

Can this centre support very heavy workpieces?

The design specification lists a maximum supported workpiece weight of 1,400 kg, making it suitable for substantial components when used with appropriate machine support.
