13″ x 37″ Industrial Metal Lathe – Full Norton Gearbox Precision Metalworking Machine (Model 1337GN) Product Description The MechMaxx 13″ x 37″ Industrial Metal Lathe (Model 1337GN) is a precision-engineered machine designed for fabrication shops, machine shops, and serious workshop environments. Equipped with a 1.5 HP (1100W) motor and a 9-speed spindle range from 64–1500 RPM, this lathe delivers reliable power and smooth cutting performance for a wide variety of metalworking tasks. A key feature of the 1337GN is its Full Norton Gearbox, which allows operators to change feed rates and threading configurations quickly without manual gear swaps. This greatly improves efficiency when switching between machining operations while ensuring consistent thread accuracy and surface finish quality. With a 13″ swing over bed, 19.1″ swing over gap, and 37″ distance between centers, the machine provides excellent capacity for machining longer shafts and larger components. The 1.57″ spindle bore and D1-4 cam-lock spindle mount allow for secure workholding and support for heavier materials. Built for Precision Machining This industrial metal lathe is engineered to provide precise control and versatile threading capability for professional metalworking applications. Full Norton gearbox for quick feed and threading adjustments 9 selectable spindle speeds from 64–1500 RPM Large 1.57″ spindle bore for machining thicker materials D1-4 cam-lock spindle mount for secure chuck installation Wide threading range for inch and metric thread cutting Precision sliding carriage and cross slide for accurate cuts These features allow machinists to perform turning, threading, facing, and finishing operations with improved accuracy and efficiency. Durable & Reliable Construction The 1337GN lathe is built with a rigid cast iron frame and induction-hardened bedways to ensure stability during demanding machining operations. Its wide bed and heavy-duty construction minimize vibration while maintaining cutting precision. Heavy-duty cast iron frame for long-term durability Induction-hardened bedways for wear resistance Wide 7.12″ bed for improved machining stability Precision MT5 spindle taper for versatile tooling Quick-adjust tailstock with MT3 taper This durable design ensures reliable performance in fabrication shops, professional workshops, and industrial machining environments.
