Colchester Bantam 800 Screwcutting Centre Metal Lathe 3 Phase

Description

Ostia Tools offer for sale this Colchester Bantam Lathe. 

3 Phase

Full working order

Good clean original condition. All original paintwork which shows the machine has not had a hard life. 

These machines normally have a handle on the right hand side of the apron to put the chuck into forwards and reverse but this has been removed and a rotary switch has been added to the front of the cabinet which provides the forwards and reverse functions. 

Supplied with 

3 jaw chuck with both internal and external jaws

4 jaw independent chuck

Very sought after fixed and travelling steadies

Faceplate

Drill chuck for tailstock 

Revolving centre and dead centre for tailstock 

Full set of change gears for both imperial and metric screwcutting. 

It is fitted with a single tool post but would very much suit a QCTP.
