Frequently asked
How do I verify compatibility before purchasing?
Match your lathe swing over bed (350–450 mm) and bed width (250–300 mm) for secure mounting.
Can this steady rest handle heavy cutting loads?
Yes, the three-point support and lock nut mechanism distribute radial forces for medium duty operations.
How often should the bearings be lubricated?
Apply light machine oil to the bearing races and guide surfaces every 500 operating hours or per schedule.
Is the jaw adjustment reversible for different diameters?
The three adjustable jaws can be repositioned to support workpieces between 20 and 150 mm via the lock nut.
More questions buyers ask
What is a steady rest used for on a lathe?
A steady rest supports long or slender workpieces to prevent deflection and chatter during machining.
How do I choose the right steady rest for my lathe?
Match the steady rest to your lathe's swing over bed and bed width specifications.
Are Pentagon steady rests compatible with all lathes?
They are designed for conventional cone pulley lathe machines; verify your specific bed dimensions before purchase.
What is the difference between a fixed and traveling steady rest?
A fixed steady rest mounts to the lathe bed to support a stationary point, while a traveling steady rest moves with the carriage.
How often should I lubricate the steady rest jaws?
Regular lubrication every 500 operating hours is recommended to maintain precision and reduce wear.
Can these steady rests handle heavy-duty machining?
Yes, we offer heavy-duty models with 4-bearing support designed for rigorous industrial applications.
What material are the contact surfaces made of?
Pentagon steady rests feature hardened steel contact surfaces for maximum durability.
Do you provide warranty on these accessories?
Yes, all Pentagon lathe accessories come with standard manufacturer warranty and service support.
Is installation difficult?
No, the T-bolt clamp system allows for quick and secure mounting to the lathe bed.
What is the maximum diameter these can support?
Our range covers diameters from 10 mm up to 300 mm depending on the specific model.
Who should choose the Medium Duty Lathe 10'' Centre steady rest?
Ideal for workshops performing general-purpose turning, threading, and boring on medium-duty lathes.
Who should choose the Heavy Duty Lathe 12'' Centre 7'' Hole steady rest?
Best for heavy-duty industrial turning and long shaft support requiring robust 4-bearing stability.
Who should choose the Light Duty Lathe 6.5'' Centre steady rest?
Perfect for light-duty lathe machines handling smaller diameter shafts and precision components.
How does the 3-bearing model compare to the 4-bearing model?
The 3-bearing model is optimized for medium-duty precision, while the 4-bearing model provides extra rigidity for heavy-duty rough machining.
Which steady rest is best for long shaft turning?
Heavy-duty models with 4-bearing support are recommended for superior stability during long shaft turning operations.
