115.5mm Live Centre MK5 Conical Tip 60° Angle, 78mm Body Diameter - RÖHM

Take advantage of a robust MK5 taper and a 115.5 mm overhang to achieve fast, repeatable centring of heavy components while keeping setup times low; order the RÖHM centring cone directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask the consultants if needed.

RÖHM Centring Cone MK5 — 115.5 mm overhang, 60° cone angle

The RÖHM Centring Cone MK5 is a precision clamping accessory for aligning heavy workpieces on lathes and machining centres, designed to ensure reliable axial location and stable support during turning operations

• MK5 taper for standard spindle interfaces
• 115.5 mm overhang for deep centring tasks
• 60° pointed cone for precise axial alignment
• Rated for workpieces up to 1,600 kg

Faster setup and consistent axial alignment for machining centres

The engineered geometry of the centring tool reduces repositioning and trial cuts, enabling more efficient cycles. With a defined 60° cone angle and a pointed form, the component creates a repeatable contact point that converts radial play into a single, predictable datum. The MK5 taper secures the tool into the spindle with standardised fit, so the combination of MK5 and the 115.5 mm overhang provides a dependable balance between reach and rigidity. This results in measurable time savings on medium and heavy turning tasks while maintaining dimensional control.

Robust contact surface for heavy-duty turning and stability

Built to take substantial loads, the centring cone supports a maximum workpiece mass of 1,600 kg, which allows its use with large chucks and heavy assemblies. The broad housing with a 78 mm diameter distributes reaction forces and reduces local stress on the spindle nose, improving runout behaviour during contact. Thanks to the pointed cone geometry, axial alignment is achieved with minimal radial offset, improving concentricity and contributing to consistent finishing without repeated adjustments.

Reduced rework through defined taper and repeatability

The standardised MK5 taper guarantees a tight mechanical interface that resists micro-movement under cutting forces, lowering the likelihood of chatter and surface defects. The precise cone angle and hard seating mean that once the component is located, positional drift is limited; this reliability translates directly into fewer scrapped parts and less rework. For workshop planners, the clear specification of taper, overhang and cone angle simplifies fixture selection and process documentation.

Practical considerations: integration, inspection and handling

Integration into an existing toolset is straightforward owing to the industry-standard taper and compact housing. Routine inspection focuses on the cone tip and taper seating for wear or burrs; addressing minor damage early maintains the precision of axial location. The simple mechanical design minimises service complexity—when inspections indicate wear beyond allowable tolerance, replacement restores original performance quickly. Packing and transport information note the item is supplied as a single unit for controlled inventory and traceable fitting.

FAQ

What spindle interfaces is this centring cone compatible with?
The RÖHM centring cone MK5 (SKU 4000832107NW) fits standard MK5 spindles and is intended for machines accepting that taper class.

How heavy a workpiece can be centred with this tool?
The centring cone is specified for workpieces up to 1,600 kg, offering a stable solution for heavy-duty turning operations.

Is the cone geometry suitable for high-precision finishing?
Yes, the 60° pointed cone profile provides a consistent axial datum, supporting high repeatability and improved concentricity in finishing passes.

What inspections are recommended to maintain centring accuracy?
Regular visual and tactile checks of the cone tip and MK5 seating are recommended; any detectable deformation or burrs should prompt repair or replacement to preserve precision.
