South Bend Lathe 9" Model A - Rebuild Parts Kit

Description: Rebuild Kit for 9” South Bend Lathe Model A Made in the USA By ILION Industrial Services, LLC - Horizontal Drive - If you are contemplating cleaning up that old South Bend this winter, this kit is what you will need to get the job done. For owners of the vintage horizontal drive South Bends who need to disassemble and clean up their machine, this aftermarket assortment of consumable gaskets, wicks, wipers and oil control felts will provide all that is required to help put your lathe back into its original condition when you go to reassemble it. These parts were designed to provide adequate lubrication to critical parts of the lathe while at the same time acting as a trap for dirt, chips and sludge. They should be replaced at regular intervals as opposed to trying to clean and reuse the old ones. The capillary oil wicks we provide for the headstock are made from the highest grade tempered spring steel, CNC wound and stress relieved to provide long service life. The lower wicking material is long-strand virgin wool and the cap wick is high quality hard grey felt so you will not find a better quality replacement wick anywhere. The remaining apron wicks, gearbox wicks, wipers, and oil control plugs are all hard white felt, precision die cut for a consistent close fit on most all versions of the workshop lathe produced from around 1939 to the late 1960’s. Now you don’t have to buy a whole yard of felt to get what you need and then waste time trying to cut and custom fit the individual parts to your lathe. We’ve done the work for you. These kits are very reasonably priced compared to OEM or used parts so don’t miss out on a chance to pick up a complete kit for your lathe while they last. If you have a Model B or Model C Southbend Lathe, check my other auctions for kits specific to those models. If you are not sure of your model compare to the picture above: Model A has the quick change threading gearbox. Model B does not have the quick change gear box but has the clutch star wheel on the apron. Model C does not have the quick change gear box OR the clutch star wheel on the apron. NOTE: This kit is for SBL owners who already have a working knowledge of their lathe. If you have never disassembled your lathe and adjusted it before, please see the other listings in our ebay store as we have a complete rebuild manual available for your lathe. We also have a combo kit available where you can get the manual and rebuild kit together for a discount. Please email if you have other questions, Thanks!
