Rear Tool Post Lathe - WM 240, WM 250

Lathe Rear Tool Post

WM 240 / WM 250 / WM 250V

Another Warco exclusive, in response to customer demand, we're happy to be introducing a rear tool post designed specifically to fit our small to medium sized variable speed lathes.

Designed in house by Warco engineers.

This rigid tool post requires our base plate to fit (details below).

Designed for these Warco lathes

• WM 240

• WM 250

• WM 250V

(For WM 240B please enquire about compatibility, as the corresponding base plate requires tee slots)

More details

• Designed for parting off from the rear - which dramatically reduces the large spindle loading compared to a front mounted parting of system.

• Parting off from the rear also avoids blade or tip damage experienced when parting off from the front.

• The corresponding base plate has a machined slot which engages with a tenon on the underside of the tool post to avoid rotation.

Dimensions

• Tool post - 54mm x 49mm x 96mm

• Tool capacity - 26mm

Works by mounting to this base plate available separately

• Cross Slide Base Plate - for WM 240 & 250 Lathes (Item No. 9576)

Base plate mounts directly onto lathe cross slide, allowing you to fit this rear tool post.

Compatible parting off tools include

• 1/2" Shank Parting Off (Item No. 9036)
