📦 Estimated ship time: 2 weeks

Give your tailstock center an extra layer of protection with the Stainless Wear Skin Upgrade.

This upgrade was developed after a customer reached out with photos showing significant wear on the outer shell of his tailstock center. While most users will likely never see this level of wear, it highlighted an opportunity to make the design even more durable for high-use applications.

The wear skin is precision cut and formed from stainless steel and mounts directly to the tailstock center using stainless steel hardware and threaded inserts. If the wear surface ever becomes damaged, it can be removed and replaced without replacing the entire center.

Features

  • Stainless steel wear surface
  • Replaceable design
  • Stainless steel mounting hardware included
  • Installs directly onto compatible 4Link4WD tailstock centers
  • Helps protect the underlying plastic center from wear
  • Designed for customers who use their setup frequently or in demanding applications

Why I Made It

One of the advantages of running a small business is being able to respond quickly to customer feedback.

After seeing a customer's heavily used tailstock center, I started working on a more durable wear surface that could be easily replaced if needed. The result is a simple stainless steel skin that protects the center while maintaining the smooth operation of the original design.

Compatibility

Compatible with current-generation 4Link4WD Magnetic Tailstocks.
