A large heavy duty cast iron lathe steady rest with an approximate bore capacity of 30 in., as indicated by the tape measure visible in the product photos. The body is constructed from cast iron and features four adjustable roller support arms positioned around the central bore opening. The outer frame is a rigid four-corner casting with machined mounting surfaces on the underside, designed to clamp to lathe bed ways. Hardware visible on the base includes adjustable clamping bolts and flat key or tongue-style way guides. Overall outer dimensions are approximately 36 in. x 36 in. based on photo scale, with a center height suitable for use on a large engine lathe with a swing in the 32 in. to 60 in. range. No manufacturer identification is visible on any surface. The item is painted teal blue on the top and side surfaces, with the base showing bare metal and surface oxidation consistent with industrial storage. Roller jaws are present and appear intact. This type of steady rest is used to support long or heavy workpieces during turning operations, preventing deflection and vibration at points along the workpiece unsupported by the chuck or tailstock. Applicable industries include heavy fabrication, oil field equipment manufacturing, mining equipment repair, and large shaft machining.
