MANUAL STEADY RESTS
Rocksteady Manual Steady Rests are individually constructed - not mass fabricated. The upper body is assembled to the base after precise and close tolerance machining to ensure rigidity and squareness of the unit. Each and every Rocksteady unit has to pass a 15 point inspection prior to dispatch. Attention to detail includes a gleaming coat of paint on non-machined faces in the appropriate color to suit the target machine tool. Generally Rocksteady Red! Way Wipers are fitted where necessary and the necessary Lifting Rings supplied for safety and ease of installation. Each unit comes complete with a set of tools, Mounting Bolts, Clamps and an instruction Manual.
