VICTOR 2040S MANUAL LATHE

The Victor 2040S is a precision manual engine lathe engineered for heavy-duty industrial machining applications. This gap bed model features a 20-inch swing over bedways with a removable gap section, allowing for workpiece diameters up to 29 inches when the gap is deployed. The lathe maintains a 40-inch distance between centers, providing substantial longitudinal capacity for extended workpiece lengths. The spindle assembly incorporates a large 3.128-inch bore diameter supported by precision bearings at three points, ensuring exceptional rigidity and consistency during machining operations. With a D1-8 cam-lock spindle nose, the lathe accommodates standard tooling configurations. The 10.1 HP main motor delivers robust cutting power at speeds ranging up to 1,550 RPM, enabling versatile material removal rates across various operations. The compound rest features a 13-inch swing over cross slide, facilitating precise depth-of-cut control and dimensional accuracy. The Meehanite casting bed construction provides superior vibration damping and thermal stability. Threading capabilities span from 4 to 56 TPI in inch measurements and 0.25 to 6mm in metric, accommodating diverse fastener production requirements. Standard equipment includes a 3-jaw chuck, coolant pump system, and foot brake for operational safety. This manual lathe represents an ideal platform for precision turning, facing, boring, and threading operations in job shop and production environments.
