Max weight capacity for 9" Southbend spindle?

Jun 20, 2004 0 Replies

Does anybody know the max weight that can be hung/spun on the spindle of a



9" Southbend lathe?

In other words how heavy a combination of chuck and work weight can be hung and spun on the spindle before undue wear and tear is realized.



Does Southbend publish a spec for this parameter for their lathes?



Thanks to anybody who knows,
