VICTOR S26120S MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The Victor S26120S is a precision heavy-duty manual lathe engineered for high-performance turning of large and heavy workpieces. With a 26-inch swing over the bed and 18.1 inches over the cross slide, it offers ample clearance for oversized parts, while the 120-inch distance between centers supports extended workpieces. The lathe features a large 4.13-inch spindle bore and a D1-11 spindle nose, enabling the machining of substantial bar stock and facilitating secure chuck mounting. Powered by a robust 15 HP three-phase main motor, the S26120S delivers consistent torque and reliability for demanding applications. Spindle speeds range from 15 to 1,200 RPM across 12 steps, providing flexibility for a wide range of materials and operations. The headstock incorporates hardened and precision-ground chromium molybdenum steel gears for durability and smooth power transmission, while the bed features hardened and ground ways with Turcite B coating for reduced friction and extended wear life. The carriage is equipped with a mechanical overload device for added protection. The cross slide is induction hardened to HRC 52 and precision ground, ensuring accuracy and longevity. The tailstock includes a dual-speed quill (1:1 and 1:5 ratio) and a 6-5/16-inch travel, with a Morse Taper #5 center for versatile tooling options. The lathe supports both inch and metric threading and feeding, with a universal gearbox and a comprehensive range of thread pitches. Standard features include a coolant system, chuck cover with limit switch, and a removable gap for increased swing capacity. The S26120S is built for efficiency, precision, and durability in heavy industrial environments.
