Collis Tool 72290 MT2 Morse Taper Drill Driver 9/32 in

Product Description

The COLLIS TOOL 72290 is an MT2 outside Morse taper drill driver designed to adapt straight-shank tooling for use in Morse taper spindles. Built for 9/32 inch drill bits, this driver features a 1/4 inch projection and accepts drill tang thicknesses from 0.158 to 0.162 inches. It provides a secure, positive drive connection between the drill and the machine spindle, reducing slippage and maintaining concentricity during drilling operations. Machinists, tool room technicians, and maintenance tradespeople use this driver when converting or matching drill tooling to MT2-equipped drill presses, lathes, and milling machines.

This driver is suited for light-to-medium duty drilling in machine shop, maintenance, and fabrication environments where MT2 spindle machines are in use. The 9/32 inch drill size and compatible tang range make it a direct-fit solution for standard twist drills in that size class. A 1-inch drill depth spec supports typical through-hole and blind-hole work at this diameter. It is installed by machinists and tool room personnel working with manual or CNC machines equipped with MT2 taper spindles.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or tool room technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before inserting or removing the taper driver. Clean the MT2 spindle bore and the taper shank with a lint-free cloth to remove chips, oil, and debris before seating - contamination prevents full taper contact and causes runout. Drive the taper home with a soft mallet if needed, and confirm the drill tang is fully engaged in the driver slot before resuming operation.
