Grizzly G0709 14 in. x 40 in. Gunsmithing Gearhead L

An accurate and powerful lathe. What makes the G0709 14" x 40" Gunsmithing Gearhead Lathe a "gunsmithing" lathe is that it comes with features typically not found on standard lathes, such as the high-precision NSK bearings, extra-large 1-9/16" spindle bore and a "spider" mount system. The spider mount system has four brass-tipped screws that stabilize long shafting and rifle barrels through the outboard end of the spindle.

Supplied with a 2 HP motor, the 8-speed gearhead of the G0709 produces spindle speeds from 70-2000 RPM.

The tailstock lock system features a drive hub, which allows you to use a 1/2" torque wrench to clamp the tailstock in place at a pre-determined torque setting. This ensures consistent draw-down alignment every time, even with multiple lathe operators using the machine.

The G0709 features a foot brake that also acts as a safety device and can bring the machine to an instant stop.

The G0709 also comes with a D1-5 spindle, a 200 series quick change tool post, flood coolant system, LED work light, and a pull-out chip tray.
