Bent lathe dogs are used in metalworking to hold irregularly shaped workpieces or workpieces that cannot be held with standard straight lathe dogs. Bent lathe dogs have a curved shape that allows them to hold onto the workpiece at multiple points, providing a secure grip and preventing the workpiece from slipping or rotating.

The curved shape of the bent lathe dog is designed to match the contours of the workpiece being held. This allows the workpiece to be held securely and evenly, which is particularly important when turning irregularly shaped objects or objects with uneven surfaces. Bent lathe dogs are often used in conjunction with standard straight lathe dogs, which provide additional support and stability.

Some common applications of bent lathe dogs include:

1. Holding irregularly shaped workpieces, such as hexagonal or octagonal bars, where a straight lathe dog cannot hold the workpiece securely.

2. Holding tapered workpieces, where the diameter of the workpiece changes along its length.

3. Holding workpieces with non-cylindrical shapes, such as rectangular or square bars.

4. Holding workpieces with uneven surfaces, such as castings or forgings.

Overall, bent lathe dogs are an essential tool in metalworking, allowing operators to hold a wide range of irregularly shaped workpieces securely and accurately on a lathe, enabling precise and efficient machining operations.
