It accepts taps with a shank diameter of 0.381 inches and a shank square of 0.286 inches, providing a secure, positive drive during tapping operations. The MT2 taper shank mounts directly into compatible drill press or milling machine spindles. A 1\/4 inch projection positions the tap at the correct working distance, and the 1-3\/64 inch tap entry depth suits standard threading tasks in metal fabrication and machining environments. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians are the primary users of this driver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tapping driver is suited for machine tapping operations on drill presses, milling machines, and similar equipment where an MT2 taper spindle is present. It is used in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production machining environments that require reliable tap drive and release in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The split sleeve design allows for controlled tap engagement and helps protect taps from breakage during through-hole and blind-hole threading operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMT2 taper shank mounts directly to standard Morse Taper 2 spindles without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccepts 3\/8 inch taps with 0.381 inch shank diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTap shank square of 0.286 inches provides positive rotational drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-3\/64 inch tap entry depth accommodates standard tap lengths\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch projection sets correct tap-to-work distance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSplit sleeve design reduces tap breakage risk during machine tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style tapping driver for machine spindles equipped with an MT2 Morse Taper socket, compatible with 3\/8 inch taps having a 0.381 inch shank diameter and 0.286 inch shank square.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or qualified toolroom technician. Power down and de-energize the machine spindle completely before mounting or removing the taper shank driver. Clean the MT2 taper bore and shank with a lint-free cloth before seating to ensure full contact and prevent fretting. Never use the driver to hand-tap or apply side loads, as the taper shank is designed for axial machine tapping only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: MT2 Morse Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Entry Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-3\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Shank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.381 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Shank Square\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.286 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: COLLIS TOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 72423\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"COLLIS TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67908141547826,"sku":"72423","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/173141445cdddd874b04ef237634c414.jpg?v=1791182609","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/collis-tool-72423-split-sleeve-tapping-driver-mt2","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
