The BS0 dividing head is semi-universal, meaning it can be tilted from horizontal to vertical angles and clamped securely at any angle between. This feature enables the user to perform complex milling, drilling, and other operations with maximum precision and accuracy. The head comes with an indexing plate that has 24 holes, allowing for division into 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 equal parts.

The 5" three-jaw chuck is designed to hold workpieces securely and accurately. Its three jaws grip the workpiece evenly, ensuring that it remains firm and centered during operation. The chuck can be adjusted to grip different sizes of workpieces, making it versatile and ideal for workshops that handle various sizes of materials.

The tailstock is used to support the workpiece when it extends beyond the chuck. It is adjustable for length and height, allowing for different workpiece sizes and configurations. The tailstock also has a center drill and live center, making it possible to machine workpieces with precision and accuracy.

The dividing plates are used to divide circles, holes, and shapes into equal parts. They come in different sizes and divisions, enabling the user to divide workpieces accurately and efficiently. The standard accessories include a crank handle, a set of change gears, and a set of tailstock centers, which are essential tools used in dividing and indexing.

In conclusion, the Pentagon SEMI UNIVERSAL Dividing or Indexing Head Set model BS0 with 5" Chuck, Tailstock, Dividing Plates, and other standard accessories is an essential tool for any workshop that deals with precision machining.
