When used with its various accessories SHERLINE lathes will perform a host of tasks. They will turn, face, bore, drill, ream, polish, cut tapers, and cut both English and metric threads. When used with its vertical milling column attachment it can be used for milling, fly cutting, drilling, and boring operations.
Standard equipment for the basic Model 4000 (metric 4100) lathe includes the motor and its speed controller, a 2.75" (70mm) x 6.00" (152mm) crosslide, 15" (381mm) steel bed to allow 8" (203mm) between centers, standard 1-5/8" (41mm) laser engraved aluminum handwheels, pulleys, belt, faceplate, lathe dog, two dead centers, two hexagonal keys, tool post, high speed cutting tool, 8-foot three-wire power cord and instruction booklet.
The Model 4500 (metric 4530) lathe is standard with the same equipment listed above, but with the addition of two 2" (51mm) resettable "zero" handwheels on the leadscrew and crosslide.
If you're interested in a lathe with more distance between centers the Model 4400 (metric 4410) lathe is available. Standard equipment is the same as in the Model 4000; however, the Model 4400 lathe provides a 24" (609mm) bed which allows 17" (431mm) between centers; a 2.5" (63mm) resettable "zero" handwheel on the leadscrew; two 2" (51mm) resettable "zero" handwheels on the crosslide and feed screw; and a rocker tool post (P/N 3057) substituted for the standard tool post.
If you're new to machining, the "A" package includes everything you need to complete about 85% of all work you will probably ever attempt on a lathe. You get a model 4000 (4100 metric) or 4500 (4530 metric) lathe plus a 2-1/2" (63mm) 3-Jaw chuck (P/N 1041) and 1/4" (6.35mm) Tailstock Chuck and key (P/N 1072). The model 4400 (4410 metric) lathe includes the larger 3-1/8" (78.68mm) 3-Jaw chuck (P/N 1040) and 3/8" (9.52mm) Tailstock Chuck and key (P/N 1069). As you learn more and wish to attempt other special jobs, the required accessories can be purchased as you need them.
For those who are setting up a shop from scratch, there are also "B" and "C" packages plus a complete shop package. See the page on PACKAGE DEALS for more details. It's a money-saving way to set up shop.
