Description

Sherline Rigid Mill Short Column Base 5605

Mill Short Column Base

For use on the 2000/2010 mill. The Sherline 5605 Base provides more rigidity than multi-piece round column and eliminates side-to-side rotation of column ram. The tall column is the height of the standard 2000 column with riser block in place. Includes Y-leadscrew cover hole.

For those who want the versatility of Sherline’s 2000/2010 mill column with its large work area and multiple directions of movement but have experienced unwanted column rotation during extreme machining loads on the 2000 mill, this new column offers another option. The one-piece column absolutely prevents that from happening, although you do give up the ability to rotate the column ram from side-to-side.

The columns bolt to the mill base using the same two side-by-side 1/4-20 SHCSs as the normal base, although we include two new ones with each base. These columns have the newer style hole through the base to accept the Y-axis leadscrew cover tube. The short base is the same height as the regular 2000 mill round column. Height is 4 Inches. The tall column is the same height as the 2000 round column with the riser block in place. Height is 6 Inches.

The base is made from aluminum.
