Value Collection SC00187120 MT1 to MT2 Morse Taper Extension

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC00187120 is a Morse taper extension adapter designed to connect MT1 inside taper tooling to MT2 outside taper spindles, extending the reach of the tool assembly. Constructed from medium carbon steel that is hardened and ground throughout, this adapter provides a rigid, concentric fit between tapered components. With an overall length of 6.25 inches, it suits applications where additional clearance or reach is needed between a taper-shank tool and the machine spindle. It is a standard machining accessory used by machinists and tool room technicians in lathe, drill press, and milling operations.

This adapter is used in machine shop environments where a Morse taper size mismatch exists between the tool shank and the machine spindle socket. The MT1 receiving socket accepts MT1-shank tooling such as drill bits, reamers, and small boring tools, while the MT2 male taper seats directly into an MT2-compatible spindle or drill press chuck arbor. The 6.25-inch overall length makes it well suited for setups requiring extended tool projection, such as deep-hole drilling or fixture-clearance work on manual lathes and drill presses.

Key Features

• MT1 inside taper accepts standard MT1-shank tooling
• MT2 outside taper seats into MT2 spindle sockets
• 6.25-inch overall length provides extended tool reach
• Medium carbon steel construction with hardened and ground finish throughout for accurate taper fit
• Extension-style adapter for bridging taper size differences between tool and machine

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit adapter for machine tool spindles and drill press quills accepting MT2 outside taper shanks, with MT1 inside taper for compatible tool shanks.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tool room technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or removing any taper adapter. Clean both the adapter taper surfaces and the spindle socket thoroughly before seating to ensure full taper contact and prevent fretting. Use a proper drift and soft mallet to eject the adapter from the spindle — never apply side force to the tool shank to remove it.
