The threaded mount interface measures 7\/8-20, allowing direct attachment to compatible boring heads without additional adapters. This type of shank is used in manual and CNC mills, drill presses, and boring mills where MT4 spindle tooling is standard. Machinists and tool room operators install this component as part of a boring head assembly to achieve precise hole enlargement and diameter finishing on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. Coolant-through capability is not supported on this shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis taper shank is suited for manual machining centers, knee mills, and radial arm drill presses equipped with MT4 spindle tapers. It is typically used in job shop, maintenance, and production environments where boring head setups require a rigid, repeatable spindle interface. The 7\/8-20 threaded mount is a common standard thread for boring head bodies, making this shank a practical replacement or additional holder for existing tooling setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMT4 taper shank for direct fit in Morse Taper 4 spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/8-20 threaded mount for secure boring head attachment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through passages, simplifying setup and maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 1.48 pounds, indicating solid steel construction suitable for rigid boring applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece shank design provides consistent taper-to-thread alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or additional taper shank for boring head assemblies requiring an MT4 spindle interface and a 7\/8-20 threaded mount connection. Verify spindle taper size and boring head thread spec before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before inserting or removing the taper shank. Clean both the MT4 spindle bore and the shank taper surfaces thoroughly to remove chips, oil film, and debris before seating, as surface contamination will affect taper grip and runout. Use a draw bar where the spindle design requires it to secure the taper against axial pull-out during cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: MT4 (Morse Taper 4)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreaded Mount Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.48 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112800\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 220-1542\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51715864101170,"sku":"220-1542","price":74.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/39cfff6c4bb0422d807f14af74c5467d.jpg?v=1788519166","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-220-1542-boring-head-taper-shank-mt4","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
