One of the things that we at Carbatec get asked for all the time are quality faceplates. We have finally found some that fit the bill. We have sourced these to suit our most popular thread sizes of 1-1/4" x 8tpi and the Australian standard M30 x 3.5
The workpiece or blank is screwed onto the faceplate using a selection of the many pre-drilled holes to ensure a solid a firm grip. The faceplate is then screwed onto the headstock thread of the lathe, however these faceplates are not suitable for turning in reverse, for finishing or sanding.
