Value Collection 219-2016 End Mill Holder 2MT Taper Shank

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 219-2016 is a Morse taper end mill holder designed to mount end mills securely in milling machines and machining centers equipped with a 2MT taper spindle. The holder accepts a 1/2 inch bore end mill and provides a projection of 2.756 inches from the spindle face, giving the cutter adequate reach for standard milling operations. Through-coolant is not supported. This type of toolholder is used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working in job shops, production environments, and maintenance machining setups where accurate, repeatable cutter holding is required.

This end mill holder is suited for manual milling machines, knee mills, and compatible machining centers that use a Number 2 Morse taper spindle. It is intended for use with 1/2 inch shank end mills in applications including slotting, profiling, and face milling on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 2.756 inch projection accommodates typical workpiece clearance requirements in standard milling setups.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of Morse taper toolholders should be performed with the machine spindle locked and all power isolated. Use a proper drift and mallet designed for Morse taper removal to avoid damage to the spindle bore or the taper shank. Ensure the taper surfaces are clean and free of chips, oil, or burrs before seating the holder. End mill retention screws should be tightened to the end mill manufacturer guidelines using the appropriate hex key.
