South Bend SB1007 - Heavy 10™ 10" x 30" Gearhead Lathe

Through the years, no lathe has been as popular or iconic as a South Bend 10" lathe. This new Heavy 10 is a modern variation of our classic South Bend legend - esteemed throughout the world for being always reliable and exceptionally accurate. Not to be outdone, the SB1007 is a gearhead lathe packed with features and refinements usually found only on much larger, more expensive machines. With a 10-3/4" swing and 30" distance between centers, powered carriage and cross feeds, quick-change gearbox, all gear-head headstock, jog button, outboard spindle spider for gunsmithing, a D1-4 camlock spindle, precision German-made spindle bearings, and especially thick castings, this lathe is heavy enough to do a wide variety of jobs - yet light enough to be quick and responsive to the operator. Spindle speed is controlled via convenient headstock levers, offering an available range of 55-2200 RPM. A heavy-duty 3 HP Delta variable-frequency driver inverter ensures smooth, consistent torque at every speed from the 2 HP two speed 3-phase motor - without requiring a 3-phase power!
