The Sherline Manual 17-Inch Benchtop Lathe Package A (Metric) (EU) is a versatile and precise machine designed for those requiring additional space and capability in their machining tasks. This lathe offers a significant 17-inch distance between centers, providing ample room for working with larger components, especially when using a chuck and a tailstock chuck with an extended drill bit. This extra capacity is particularly beneficial for machinists who need to accommodate longer parts without compromising on precision.

This model distinguishes itself from smaller lathes by incorporating zero adjustable handwheels and a rocker toolpost, enhancing its value and functionality. It is capable of turning parts up to 3.5 inches in diameter over the bed and 1.88 inches over the carriage without the need for riser blocks. With an optional riser block, the lathe can handle parts up to 6 inches in diameter over the bed. The electronic speed control feature allows for a continuously variable speed range from 70 to 2,800 RPM, eliminating the need for belt changes and providing flexibility in operation. Additionally, a secondary pulley position is available to offer increased torque at lower RPMs.

Constructed in the USA, this benchtop lathe is ideal for producing small, precision parts from a variety of materials, including wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. Despite its compact size, it delivers the precision and accuracy expected from full-sized machines. The lathe is equipped with a powerful 90V DC motor and an electronic speed controller, ensuring consistent performance across a range of tasks.

The Package A configuration includes essential components such as a 3.1-inch 3-jaw self-centering chuck and a 3/8-inch tailstock drill chuck with key, along with Morse arbors and a drawbolt. These features make it a comprehensive solution for precision machining needs. Note: Always ensure proper safety measures are followed when operating the lathe to prevent accidents.
