Testimonials

“Spindle Liners - You will go crazy for how cheap and quick you can get the plastic liners for. They are amazing if you never use them. The list of people I could give you as a reference that would tell you they wish they hadn't would be a mile long. “

The only place I ever buy from is JF Berns. Their team is number one. Lead time is out there so you must plan ahead. DO NOT look at the cost, just send the PO. The very first spindle liner I bought, about 15 years ago, from JF Berns is still running strong. Their liners will outlast your machine.” Jeremie Y.

"Hello Chad.

I just wanted to drop you a note about the liners you made for us.

We checked them immediately when they came in and they fit perfectly in our Okuma lathe.

They were packaged very well, and they look like real quality products.

Also, I believe the order even arrived early if I am not mistaken.

Thank you for the great quality products and service. It is refreshing to find a company these days that strives to and achieves those goals. It seems to be a rare thing today."

"Hey Josh, the 3/4" liner is perfect so please go ahead with the rest of these. I'd like to add a 1" round and also add the 2" that I had you remove earlier (these are much nicer than the 2" urethane we just got in)."

Our new lathe purchase came together very quickly and your staff responded with what we needed in great form! We asked for our coolant collector to be top priority and we received it 2 days sooner than promised, which allowed us to get the machine up and running as seamlessly as possible. The balance of our order arrived precisely on time as promised! Thank you to you and your staff for all the efforts in getting your great products to us as needed. Happy New Year!"

"The manufacturer of our lathe recommended JF Berns liners and said they were the only way to go. We ordered a liner system and it arrived in almost half the quoted lead time. Craftsmanship is excellent and far exceeds any other liners we have used. We would not hesitate to tool up any of our turning centers with their products."
