Value Collection SC00187559 MT5 Morse Taper Extension Adapter

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC00187559 is a Morse taper extension adapter designed to extend the reach of MT5 tooling in machine spindles and quills. It accepts an MT5 inside taper and presents an MT5 outside taper, allowing technicians to add length between the spindle and the cutting tool without changing taper size. Overall length is 13.25 inches. The body is medium carbon steel, hardened and ground throughout for dimensional accuracy and wear resistance. This type of adapter is standard equipment in machining and tool-room environments where spindle depth is insufficient for the workpiece or fixture setup.

This adapter is used in drill presses, milling machines, lathes, and boring mills equipped with MT5 spindles. It is suited for production and maintenance machining applications where consistent taper seating and extended reach are required. Installation is performed by machinists and tool-room technicians during setup. The hardened and ground finish ensures proper taper engagement and reduces the risk of fretting or taper damage under repeated use.

Key Features

• MT5 inside taper accepts standard MT5 tool shanks and arbors
• MT5 outside taper seats directly into MT5 spindle sockets
• 13.25-inch overall length provides extended reach for deep-reach setups
• Medium carbon steel construction for strength and durability
• Hardened and ground throughout for accurate taper geometry and surface finish

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style extension adapter for machine spindles and quills with MT5 inside and outside Morse taper interfaces.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tool-room technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing any taper adapter. Clean both the spindle socket and the adapter taper thoroughly before insertion to ensure full taper contact and prevent fretting. Use a drift punch and the spindle drift slot to remove the adapter safely — never strike the adapter body directly.
