    Ensures a long life span

Options and special information

  • Self-centering steady rests with swing-out lever arm and high clamping forces
    Hydraulically actuated, self-centering steady rests with high clamping forces to support long workpieces on lathes. For a quick change, these can also be combined with a steady rest quick-change. The great advantage of the swing-out lever arm is that larger diameters can be loaded automatically than with the standard steady rest.
  • A pneumatic version is also available
    A hydraulic version of the ZENTRICO THL-A plus steady rests is also available as well as the hydraulic variant. These are ideal for the use in handling technology, at stationary workplaces, on conventional lathes and much more.
