Value Collection SC00186122 MT1 to MT2 Morse Taper Adapter

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC00186122 is a Morse taper extension adapter designed to connect MT1 inside taper tooling to MT2 outside taper spindles. It extends the reach of MT1-shanked tools in MT2-equipped machines, making it a practical solution for shops needing to run smaller-shank tooling in larger-spindle equipment. The adapter measures 6.25 inches overall length (OAL) and is constructed from medium carbon steel with a soft body and hardened tang. The hardened tang improves resistance to the drift forces applied during tool removal. Machinists and toolroom technicians use this adapter in drill presses, lathes, and milling machines where taper compatibility is required.

This adapter is suited for machine shop and toolroom applications where MT1 inside taper tooling must be run in an MT2 outside taper spindle. Typical installations include drill presses and lathes equipped with MT2 spindles accepting MT1-shank drills, reamers, or other cutting tools. The 6.25-inch OAL provides additional extension depth for applications where standard adapter lengths are insufficient. It is intended for use by machinists, tool and die technicians, and maintenance professionals working with Morse taper tooling systems.

Key Features

• MT1 inside taper to MT2 outside taper configuration for spindle compatibility
• 6.25-inch overall length for extended reach in MT2 spindle machines
• Medium carbon steel construction for durability under drilling and turning loads
• Soft body with hardened tang for improved drift-out resistance during tool removal
• Standard Morse taper geometry compatible with conventional taper tooling systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment adapter for machine tools equipped with MT2 outside taper spindles accepting MT1 inside taper tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or toolroom technicians. Ensure the spindle and adapter tapers are clean and free of chips, oil, or burrs before seating the adapter, as contamination on taper surfaces reduces holding force and can cause tool runout. Never force a mismatched taper into a spindle. Use a proper drift and mallet against the hardened tang when removing the adapter from the spindle bore to avoid damaging the soft body.
