Oil country lathes are heavy-duty horizontal or slant bed
lathes which are applied for turning, boring and threading large diameter tubes, pipes or drill stems in the oil and gas
industries. Oil country lathes have large solid ribbed cast construction of the bed and outside the lathe stands
which allow them to machine large-scale tubes and pipes. The spindle bore of these lathes also has an extra large
diameter, so as to accommodate the pipes used in the oil and gas industry.
