South Bend SB1077 Metal Lathe Accessories Follow Rest X33 New

The South Bend SB1077 X33 Follow Rest is a metal lathe accessory made to support long, slender workpieces during machining. Mounted to the carriage, it travels with the cutting tool to help keep flexible stock steady as the operation progresses.

Its adjustable jaws are designed to reduce deflection in both directions while cutting. The upper jaw helps resist upward movement, while the lower jaws help control downward flex, improving stability for threading and other precision work on long shafts.

This follow rest is intended for machinists and shops using compatible South Bend Big Bore lathes, including models SB1065F, SB1066F, and SB1067F. It is a practical addition for users who need better rigidity and more accurate results when working with longer materials.
