G0632 specifications

The Grizzly G0632 is a versatile and powerful wood lathe, designed for both professional woodworkers and hobbyists seeking to expand their craft. Renowned for its robust construction and user-friendly features, the G0632 is ideal for turning bowls, spindles, and various wood projects.

One of the standout features of the Grizzly G0632 is its powerful 1 HP motor, which delivers consistent performance for a variety of turning applications. The motor is capable of running at variable speeds ranging from 450 to 3,200 RPM. This range offers woodworkers the flexibility to choose the optimal speed for their specific project, whether it be a delicate spindle or a larger, more robust bowl.

The lathe's bed is made from heavy-duty cast iron, providing exceptional stability and reducing vibration during operation. This is crucial in achieving smooth finishes on your workpieces. The robust construction also means that the G0632 can handle larger, heavier pieces of wood without compromising performance.

Another significant characteristic of the G0632 is its easy-to-use swivel headstock.

The headstock can be locked in place to maintain accuracy during turning.

The G0632 also boasts a 12-inch swing capacity over the bed, allowing for turning objects up to 12 inches in diameter. Coupled with a 36-inch distance between centers, this lathe provides ample space for a range of projects, from small bowls to longer spindles.

In terms of technology, Grizzly has equipped the G0632 with a quick-release tailstock, which simplifies the process of adjusting and positioning your workpiece. It also features a 4-position indexing head, which is perfect for creating intricate designs and patterns on your work.

For added safety, the G0632 includes a sturdy handwheel for manual control, ensuring that users can operate the lathe comfortably and securely. Additionally, the lathe's overall design promotes ease of use, making it a great choice for both experienced woodworkers and newcomers.

In summary, the Grizzly G0632 wood lathe encapsulates quality and functionality, making it a valuable addition to any workshop.
