Steady rest blocks

Steady rest blocks in different designs

Different designs for many steady rest variants

Steady rest block arrangement in setady rests (cam shaft application example)

Single-axis self-centering pendulum steady rest blocks

Two-axel self-centering pendulum steady rest blocks

Steady rest blocks PCD quality

Fixed steady rest blocks for supporting and centering long, thin workpieces

  • available for many steady rest variants
  • most commonly used steady rest inserts are available from stock
  • individual design according to customer requirements
  • high PCD quality = low friction and long service life
  • long service life – practically wear-free thanks to PCD
  • low friction guidance of components
  • self centering pendulum steady rests for e.g. edge banding and gloss strips
  • repair and regrinding possible

A fixed steady rest block is used to support long, thin workpieces so that they do not bend during machining. Compared with white metal, bronze, Pertinax or special plastic, PCD is clearly superior as a steady rest material both economically and technologically.

Whether in crankshaft and camshaft production or in the manufacture of valves or piston rods: Steady rest blocks are used in many areas.
