Description

MT5 To MT4 Morse Taper Reduction Sleeve

Unlock greater flexibility in your tooling setup with this robust Morse Taper Reduction Sleeve (MT5 to MT4). Designed to fit an MT5 machine spindle while accepting tools with an MT4 taper, it bridges the gap between incompatible taper sizes and significantly expands your tooling options.

Key Features

  • Taper Conversion: Reduces your spindle’s internal taper from MT5 down to MT4, enabling you to use smaller MT4 tools in a larger MT5 bore.

  • Hardened & Ground Construction: Manufactured from high-quality tool steel, this sleeve is hardened and ground to DIN 2185 standards for long-lasting precision and wear resistance.

  • Durable Tang/Ejector Feature: Many reduction sleeves (from reputable manufacturers) feature a tang or ejector tang, making it easier to remove the sleeve from the spindle when required.

  • Versatile Use: Ideal for use in drill presses, milling machines, or other machines where you want to run MT4 tools but only have an MT5 socket.

  • Compact Design: Designed to fit securely within the MT5 bore while maintaining reliable contact and alignment with minimal play.

Why Choose This Sleeve?

By installing this reduction sleeve, you gain:

  • Cost Savings: Avoid the need to buy a whole suite of MT5-shank tools by simply adapting the spindle to accept your existing MT4 tooling.

  • Increased Flexibility: Easily swap between MT4 and MT5 tooling setups without needing to change the spindle or machine.

  • Precision Retention: The hardened and ground internal/external tapers help preserve accurate seating and good runout performance.

Typical Applications

  • Using MT4-shank drill bits, reamers, or tools in an MT5 spindle.

  • Toolroom or maintenance settings where multiple taper sizes are common.

  • Retrofitting older machines to accommodate a wider range of tooling.
