A Bargain at only £9.99 I have used one of these chucks myself for many years on both my Harrison and Axminster lathes and found them to be well made, solid and reliable. I have written below some information on chucks and Morse tapers that may be of interest.One of the things that confuse many people is the Morse taper, how it works or simply what size Morse taper they need for their own lathe. I have written below a few brief notes to try and help, but If have any questions then please ask.What is a Morse taper? The Morse Taper is the " hollow tapered hole" found in the centre of the Headstock and in the Tailstock of Lathes (as well as some Pillar drills and Milling machines) made to common diameter sizes with a universally recognised tapered profile. Morse Tapers come in eight sizes. The taper size is normally identified by a single digit ranging from 0 to 7 (0 being the smallest) which is normally just abbreviated to the letters "MT", so a MT2 is a Morse Taper Number 2. It is fairly easy to identify which MT you need by simply measuring the hole diameter in your tail stock. The approx Morse Taper hole sizes are listed below. MT1 = 12mm MT2 = 18mm MT3 = 24mm (MT1 & MT2 being the most popular). Whilst there are other tapers, these are very rarely found on lathes. Of these "other tapers" the most common is a Jacobs taper which is normally only found on Pillar drills. The fitting (the hole) in the back of the chuck is called the "short taper" and these vary enormously. Our chucks have the common (and most popular) fitting called B16. The B16 is the Metric DIN taper number. The dimensions of the B16 "short taper" are 15.73mm taper to 14.50mm with a taper length of 24mm. How does a Morse Taper work? Lathes, by their nature, operate in a rotary manner and normally a rotating workpiece comes into contact with a fixed tool, i.e. a drill bit held in a drill chuck held in the tailstock. The chuck must be held firmly in place, properly centred in line with the axis of rotation, but also able to be quickly and simply removed. The best way of achieving this was found to be using a tapered metal bar (similar to a ice cream cone with the top cut off) fitted into a hollowed tapered hole (or sleeve) in the head or tail stock. The large tapered surface area of the cone holds the shaft very securely in place through friction; hence the invention of the Morse Taper was born (invented 1864 by A. Morse). The Morse Taper is now universally accepted as the standard Machine Taper used throughout the world.We also have these Chucks available in MT2 and listed in the tools section of our Ebay Shop, If you are not sure what size just let us know and we can help.Please check out our 100% feedback and our Ebay Shop as we have other items listed that may be of interestAll items shown are listed in our Ebay ShopMorse Taper 1 Live Centre Precision ground Hardened Steel. 60° angle tip will cover 90% of all turning applications.· Well lubricated to protect against contaminents and coolantsHeavy duty triple 'sealed for life' dust proofed bearingsPerfect for Wood turningDesigned for turning in between centres.
