Collis Tool 72245 MT2 Morse Taper Drill Driver

Product Description

The COLLIS TOOL 72245 is an MT2 outside Morse taper drill driver designed to secure and drive straight-shank or tang-end drills in Morse taper spindles and drill press quills. The driver accepts a drill tang and seats into a No. 2 Morse taper socket, providing a positive, slip-resistant connection during drilling operations. It is sized for a 0.152 inch drill diameter and offers a 3/4 inch drilling depth. The 1/4 inch projection and drill tang compatibility make this driver suitable for precision hole-making tasks in metal, wood, or composite materials across machine shop and production environments.

This drill driver is used in manual and CNC drill presses, milling machines, and lathes equipped with a No. 2 Morse taper spindle. It is a standard tooling component for machinists, tool and die technicians, and production floor operators who need a reliable tang-drive connection for small-diameter drill bits. Typical applications include production drilling in metalworking shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication operations where repeatable hole accuracy at the 0.152 inch diameter is required.

Key Features

• MT2 outside Morse taper shank seats securely in No. 2 Morse taper spindles
• Drill tang compatible for positive drive without slippage
• 0.152 inch drill size for precise small-diameter drilling
• 3/4 inch drilling depth for controlled penetration
• 1/4 inch projection provides clearance between spindle face and workpiece
• Drill tang thickness range of 0.09 to 3/32 inch accommodates standard small drill shanks

Compatibility

Designed for use with drill presses, milling machines, and lathes fitted with a No. 2 Morse taper spindle socket that require a tang-drive drill driver for 0.152 inch diameter drills.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Before seating the driver, ensure the spindle and taper shank are clean and free of chips, oil, or debris, as contamination will prevent full taper engagement and cause runout. Insert the taper shank firmly with a single upward push to seat it properly - do not hammer the shank, as this can damage the spindle bore. Always power down and lock out the machine before changing or removing tooling.
