Features of the Oster 784 Pipe and Bolt Threading Machine
Cut-Off, Reaming & Chamfering
The Lathe type Cut-Off and Chamfer Tools are cross rail mounted on the back of the Die Head. The easy operating Reamer is of the swing type.
Lever Operated Dieheads that Cover the Entire Pipe and Bolt Range
Two quick-opening, removable, lever operated die heads cover the entire pipe and bolt range. Both have a positive locking device and means for adjusting all dies simultaneously for over or undersize threads. Quick, easy die change from one size to another makes them particularly desirable where a variety of sizes are to be threaded.
The No. 784 is equipped with one No. 03852 quick-opening die head with one set of Symbol QUAD high speed steel pipe dies for 1" thru 2" plus the No. 03590 Die Head and a single set of symbol 74 high speed steel pipe dies to thread all sizes 2.5" thru 4".
Motor Control for Threading Machines
Magnetic starter and push button station with REVERSING control. A JOG - RUN selector switch allows a means for jogging the spindle to facilitate shifting gears. 230/460V input is converted to 120V at the machine control for the operator's safety.
Motor Mount & Transmission
Motor is mounted on an adjustable plate, driving through three "V" belts which, in turn, drive a selective gear-type transmission. The "V" belts cushion shocks and make for quiet, smooth operation. All shafts are ball bearing mounted.
