The MT5 taper provides a rigid, self-holding connection to the spindle, while the 1-1\/2-18 threaded nose interfaces directly with the boring head body. Weighing 4.6 pounds, this shank is built for applications where rigidity and concentricity are critical to achieving accurate bore diameters. Coolant-through capability is not included in this configuration. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals use this shank as a core component of a precision boring setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis taper shank is suited for use in manual and CNC milling machines or horizontal boring mills equipped with an MT5 spindle. It is typically used in machine shops, tool rooms, and production environments where off-center boring or precise diameter work is performed. The 1-1\/2-18 threaded mount accepts standard boring head bodies that use this thread specification. It is appropriate for both roughing and finishing boring operations when paired with the correct boring head and insert tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMT5 (Morse Taper 5) shank provides a self-holding fit in compatible machine spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2-18 threaded mount interfaces with standard boring head bodies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through ports — suited for dry or flood coolant environments where through-tool coolant is not required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4.6-pound construction reflects a robust, solid shank build for rigidity during boring operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUNSPSC Code 27112800 for procurement and catalog classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with boring head bodies that accept a 1-1\/2-18 threaded mount connection, installed in machine spindles with an MT5 taper socket. Consult your boring head and machine tool specifications to confirm thread and taper compatibility before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist familiar with Morse Taper tooling and machine tool setup procedures. Before installing or removing the shank, ensure the machine is fully powered down and the spindle is locked or secured per the machine manufacturer's guidelines. Clean both the MT5 shank and spindle bore thoroughly to remove chips, oil film, and debris before seating, as contamination will affect runout and concentricity. Use a drawbar if the machine spindle is designed to accept one, and follow standard shop practices for taper seating and removal to avoid damage to the taper surfaces.\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: MT5 (Morse Taper 5)\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: 1-1\/2-18\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: 4.6 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: 220-1554\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51724004196658,"sku":"220-1554","price":116.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/33b31be818be85f32bbc0775ef1d93c2.jpg?v=1788611393","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-220-1554-boring-head-mt5-taper-shank","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
