SB1049 13" x 30" Gearhead Lathe
A lathe loaded with many features and high-precision parts in a relatively small footprint.
The South Bend SB1049 Gearhead Lathe is driven by a fixed-speed 3 HP motor with convenient headstock levers to control the 8 spindle speeds between 80–2000 RPM.
The spindles are D1-5 camlock with an MT#5 taper, 1.57" bore, and equipped with Japanese NSK or NTN bearings. The tailstocks have an MT#3 taper and 1.968" of quill travel.
The bed of the lathe is constructed with Meehanite® castings that are hardened and precision-ground in the traditional three V-way prismatic design.
Quality Allen-Bradley® electrical components and attention to detail provide dependable electrical control of the powered movements.
And finally, this milling machine comes with a circulating coolant system.
The SB1049 is covered by a South Bend 2-year warranty covering parts and factory defects. Tooling and other lathe-related consumables are not covered by this warranty.
The SB1049 manual was written by our U.S.-based Technical Documentation Department and is packed with useful information.
Parts may be available online and shipped from the South Bend parts warehouse in Springfield, MO.
