One ENCO Universal 4 Turret Tool Post Holder for medium to large lathe's
For Sale: This is a very nice working 4 inch ENCO (now MSC Direct) Indexing Turret Tool post with many positions as well as height adjustment by shimming. This turret is suitable for lathe's with swings 13 inches to 20 inches. It will hold 3/4 inch tools and you'll be amazed how much work it can do. This is a tough working and productive tool turret which has done a ton of work and will still outlast the both of us. The turret is tempered and has ball bearing detents underneath.

This unit is out of storage now and should be taken apart and serviced. You will need to fit it to your lathe by choosing or making a T-Slot nut and setting the elevation as you need.

Many online vendors sell T slots so just do your homework. This was used on a 16 Monarch and performed admirably. We removed & set aside an Aloris IV set up because it was a paint to use.

To make a quick T slot, cut a 4 inch long x (thickness of choice) piece of flat iron & then drill & tap into its center a 3/4 x 16 TPI (UNF). Fashion a correct height piece of 3/4 x 16 threaded stock. Attach the threaded stock & weld it in place. Slide it into your compound's slot, set the turret holder in place, add a washer & nut & snug. The turret then rotates by opening the operator handle, position as needed & then close the handle.

With some practice you can rotate in or out a half dozen tools. Value: We bought this new, used it for years and it has performed flawlessly. Condition : As stated: used, very good to excellent. Needs servicing as it has been in storage.

It also needs a T-Slot and proper fitting to your lathe. The unit should be disassembled and the bearings cleaned, repacked with light grease and then put back together.

As I recall the bearings are a set of balls and I think they were on the order of 3/8 in diameter. When you release the operator handle, an internal spring pushes up allowing the turret to index left or right without the T-Slot post being touched. That's how the magic of accurate indexing works. Once you use one of these, you'll never do without it. The item "One ENCO Universal 4 Turret Tool Post Holder for medium to large lathe's" is in sale since Friday, March 29, 2019.
