Collis Tool 72304 MT2 Morse Taper Drill Driver 11/32

Product Description

The COLLIS TOOL 72304 is an MT2 outside Morse taper drill driver designed to adapt straight-shank or tang-drive drill bits into MT2 spindles on drill presses, lathes, and milling machines. The driver features a 1/4 inch projection and accepts drill tang thicknesses from 0.199 to 0.203 inches, making it a precise fit for 11/32 inch fractional drills with a 0.3438 inch decimal equivalent. This type of toolholder is a standard component in machine shop and production environments where repeatable, secure bit retention in a Morse taper spindle is required. Machinists and tool-room technicians rely on it to maintain concentricity and axial alignment during drilling operations.

This drill driver is suited for use in machine shop, production, and maintenance environments where MT2 spindle tooling is standard. It supports drilling operations requiring a 1-1/8 inch drill depth with the specified 11/32 inch bit size. Typical installations include benchtop and floor-model drill presses, engine lathes with MT2 tailstocks, and similar machine tools equipped with a No. 2 Morse taper socket. It is installed by trained machinists or industrial maintenance technicians working with rotating equipment.

Key Features

• MT2 outside Morse taper shank for direct fit into No. 2 Morse taper spindles
• Accepts 11/32 inch drill size with 0.3438 inch decimal equivalent
• 1/4 inch projection for proper bit positioning relative to spindle face
• Compatible drill tang thickness range of 0.199 to 0.203 inches ensures secure tang engagement
• 1-1/8 inch drill depth capacity for the designated bit size
• Drill tang compatible design locks bit against rotational slip under load

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard toolholder for machine tools equipped with a No. 2 Morse taper (MT2) spindle socket, compatible with 11/32 inch drill bits having a tang thickness of 0.199 to 0.203 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or industrial maintenance technicians. Before installing or removing any Morse taper tooling, power down the machine and bring the spindle to a complete stop. Clean both the taper shank and the spindle socket thoroughly before seating to ensure full contact and prevent fretting. Use a proper drift key and drift slot to remove the driver from the spindle - never strike the toolholder directly with a hammer.
