does this work on metal spindles?

We attached ours to the wall but I think it would work on metal spindles as well as on wooden ones.

I believe that it would. We have them on wooden spindles. But they will adjust easily to a thinner metal spindle.

They will work on softer metal at slow RPM and using cutting oil to reduce heat and friction. They're not really made for harder metals like steel or cast iron.

Yes it does. I have a square spindle running through it with glass knobs screwed onto each side.

If your lathe spindle is a 1" 8 tpi then yes it will fit. If it is a 3/4" spindle there is an adapter that will make it fit.

It might work depending on how damaged or distorted your threads are. I used it to correct distorted threads in a steel cranks shaft from a Honda Civic. Although the tap is 4130, it's still pretty soft compared to a regular tap. This tool allowed me to start from the back and make multiple passes to correct the threads so they were true to the center line. Then I drove a regular hardened tap from the front down into the crankshaft for a final clean up of the threads (keep in mind you shouldn't do this step with your head.)

I have used this on many things and it works very well. I have not used it on Metal.

There is nothing in the instructions that tells a user what type metal this solution works on. It works on carbon steel. I am sorry I cant be of more help. It is worth a try.

Thank you for considering AMC Parts Store for your mower parts.Will need the complete model # and manufacturer of your mower to confirm if this spindle is the correct one.

I used them on thin aluminum. If you apply enough pressure it should work on metal

I wind Janome bobbins all the time. It works with most machines. There are different sized spindles for different machines.

I have no idea. It has worked on the following for me:ChromeAluminumStainless steelZinc plating

Yes. Make sure there is a difference in the reflectiveness between the tape and the spindle. It should work well.

Don't know for sure; however the HF site shows it to have a 1" spindle. The standard for 1" spindles is 8 tpi, so it probably will, but the possibility exists that it is an oddball. I suggest you take an accessory that is 1"-8 to a local HF and test it.

I don't know. It is for metals and I suspect you could contact the company and ask

Thank you for considering AMC Parts Store for your mower parts.Yes, all these answers are appropriate. All purpose grease or white lithium will work well for lubricating these spindles.

I don't know why it wouldn't. It works on all my machines just fine, Featherweight, Janome, Brother. Very nice thread.

I don't think so - there is just under 2-1/2 inches to the holding spindle.
