Pipe and Tubing Live Centers
Also known as bull-nose centers, these have a wide head to hold pipe and large-diameter tubing. Use live centers in the tailstock to support the end of a workpiece. With bearings to support their free-turning point, they produce minimal friction between the center and workpiece.
