Taper Mate

When dust, oil, wax or other materials build up inside of the morse taper in your lathe spindle, centers and drill chucks are unable to seat properly. A center working loose while the lathe is running is likely to cause permanent damage to your expensive lathe spindle rendering it incapable of holding morse taper centers. This commonly occurs when using a drill chuck in the tailstock for drilling larger diameter holes. With Taper Mate cleaners, you can easily clean the morse tapers on your lathe in just seconds with a simple twist. Made of non-marring polyurethane, the helical ridges on the Taper Mate quickly “squeegee” debris and oil from any morse taper. Taper Mates help keep your lathe running like new. Instructions included
