The Sherline Manual 17-Inch Benchtop Lathe Package C (Inch) (EU) is a versatile and precise machine designed for machinists who require additional space and capability in their work. This lathe offers a significant 17-inch distance between centers, providing ample room for working with larger parts and accommodating a chuck and tailstock chuck with a long drill bit. This increased capacity is particularly beneficial when the combination of chucks, parts, and drills consumes much of the available space. The lathe is equipped with zero adjustable handwheels and a rocker toolpost, enhancing its value and functionality.

This benchtop lathe can turn 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 an optional riser block, it can handle parts up to 6 inches in diameter over the bed. The electronic speed control allows for continuously variable speed adjustments ranging from 70 to 2,800 RPM, eliminating the need for belt changes. Additionally, a second pulley position is available to provide extra torque at lower RPMs if required.

The lathe is ideal for producing small, precision parts and is capable of cutting materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel with high accuracy. Despite its compact desktop size, it delivers full-size machine precision and accuracy. The package includes a powerful 90V DC motor with an electronic speed controller, a 3.1-inch 3-jaw self-centering chuck, a 3/8-inch tailstock drill chuck with key, and various other components such as a steady rest, live center, compound slide, and a rear mount cutoff tool and holder. It also comes with a 3-piece 1/4-inch HSS cutting tool set, a T-driver, a center drill set, and a Sherline Accessories Shop Guide Book, along with a thread cutting attachment.

Note: Ensure proper safety measures are followed when operating the lathe to prevent accidents or injuries.
