Value Collection SC00187237 MT2 to MT3 Morse Taper Adapter

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC00187237 is a Morse taper extension adapter designed to connect MT2 inside taper tooling to an MT3 outside taper spindle or sleeve. It extends reach while maintaining a rigid, concentric interface between the two tapers. The adapter is machined from medium carbon steel and is hardened and ground throughout for dimensional accuracy and long service life. With an overall length of 7.625 inches, it provides additional clearance in setups where standard-length tooling falls short. This type of adapter is commonly installed by machinists and tool-room technicians working on lathes, drill presses, and milling machines.

This adapter is suited for machine shop and production environments where MT2 tooling must seat in an MT3 spindle or tool holder. Typical applications include extending drill chucks, reamers, or other MT2-shank tooling into MT3-equipped machines. The hardened and ground finish ensures a precise taper fit that minimizes runout and maintains tool concentricity during cutting operations.

Key Features

• MT2 inside taper accepts standard MT2-shank tooling
• MT3 outside taper seats directly into MT3 spindles or sleeves
• Overall length of 7.625 inches provides extended reach
• Medium carbon steel construction for rigidity and durability
• Hardened and ground throughout for precise fit and reduced runout

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit adapter for machine tools equipped with an MT3 spindle requiring MT2 inside taper tooling interface.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or tool-room technicians. Before inserting or removing the adapter, power down the machine and bring the spindle to a full stop. Clean both the spindle bore and the adapter taper surfaces thoroughly to remove chips, oil, and debris, as contamination directly affects seating accuracy and concentricity. Use a drawbar or drift key appropriate for the machine spindle to seat or eject the adapter safely.
