Value Collection 54100578 Keyless Drill Chuck 1/2 in 2MT

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 54100578 is a keyless drill chuck designed for use with Morse taper spindles in drilling and machining applications. It accepts drill bit shanks from 1/64 inch up to 1/2 inch (12.70 mm) capacity, making it suitable for a wide range of drilling operations. The chuck mounts via an integral taper shank in the 2MT (No. 2 Morse Taper) configuration and features a keyless sleeve design for fast, tool-free bit changes. The sleeve diameter measures 50.5 mm. This chuck is installed by machinists and tool-room technicians on drill presses, lathes, and milling machines equipped with a 2MT spindle socket.

This chuck is appropriate for light-duty to medium-duty drilling on benchtop and floor-standing drill presses as well as lathe tailstocks fitted with a No. 2 Morse Taper socket. The keyless design speeds up bit swaps in production or repair environments where frequent tool changes are common. It is suited for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and general metalworking or woodworking setups that require reliable, repeatable chuck performance across the full 1/64 to 1/2 inch capacity range.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or qualified technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before inserting or removing the chuck. Clean both the spindle socket and the chuck taper with a lint-free cloth before seating to ensure proper alignment and full taper contact. To remove, use a proper Morse taper drift through the spindle drift slot — never strike the chuck body directly.
