TAPER ADAPTOR MT2 - B16 CMMT MORSE TAPER
Features
- Conversion: MT2 male shank to B16 male taper for B16-bore chucks.
- Precision-ground tapers for accurate fit and reduced run-out.
- Hardened steel construction for durability under workshop use.
- Industry standard geometry compatible with MT2 spindles/arbors.
- Smooth surface finish to seat and release cleanly.
Benefits
- Versatility: fit common B16 drill chucks to MT2 machines.
- Accuracy: concentric seating improves hole quality.
- Quick setup: drop-in adaptor—no special tools required for fitting.
Extra Information
- Clean and degrease both tapers before assembly; any debris reduces holding power.
- Seat the chuck with a firm hand press; avoid striking directly on the chuck body.
- Remove using the machine’s taper-eject feature or the correct drift/wedge.
Pro Tip
- Mark the relative orientation of adaptor and chuck with a paint pen—reassembling to the same position can preserve peak concentricity.
- If the fit feels “sticky,” lightly stone any raised burrs on the tapers; never sand or file the seating surfaces.
