The Sherline Manual 17-Inch Benchtop Lathe Package B (Inch) (EU) is a versatile and precise machine designed for machinists who require additional space and capability in their work. This benchtop lathe offers a significant 17-inch distance between centers, providing ample room for working with parts held in a chuck alongside a larger tailstock chuck equipped with a long drill bit. This extended capacity is particularly beneficial when the combination of chucks, parts, and drills consumes much of the available space, making it a valuable tool for precision machining tasks.

This lathe is capable of turning parts up to 3.5 inches in diameter over the bed and up to 1.88 inches over the carriage without the need for riser blocks. With the optional riser block, it can handle parts up to 6 inches in diameter over the bed. The electronic speed control feature allows for continuously variable speed adjustments ranging from 70 to 2,800 RPM, eliminating the need for belt changes. Additionally, a secondary pulley position is available to provide extra torque at lower RPMs when necessary.

Constructed in the USA, this lathe is engineered to produce high-quality precision parts, making it suitable for cutting wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. Despite its compact desktop size, it delivers the precision and accuracy expected from full-size machines. The lathe is equipped with a powerful 90V DC motor and an electronic speed controller, ensuring reliable performance.

The B Package includes essential components such as a 3.1-inch 3-jaw self-centering chuck, a 3/8-inch tailstock drill chuck with key, Morse arbors, a steady rest, a live center, a rear mount cutoff tool and holder, and a 3-piece 1/4-inch HSS cutting tool set. These accessories enhance the lathe's functionality and versatility, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a comprehensive machining solution.
