Product description
The MT-M series consists of single rigid tap holders with MT2, MT3 or MT4 Morse taper connections. Each catalog model has its own tap-size range. Select the machine-side taper and the tap's physical connection together, and confirm that the machine's tapping method is suitable for a rigid holder before defining the order.
Range by taper
MT2-M, MT3-M and MT4-M have different listed tapping ranges.
Machine-cycle review
Provide the tapping method and tap geometry so the complete arrangement can be assessed.
Checking an M16 tapping request
M16 is outside the MT2-M catalog range of M3–M12. MT3-M lists M6–M20, but it also has an MT3 machine connection: its larger tapping range does not make it a replacement for an MT2 holder. Confirm the machine connection first, then check the tap shank, driving square and tapping cycle.
For a machine with a confirmed MT3 connection, start with the MT3-M catalog row and add the full M16 thread designation, tap shank and square dimensions, workpiece material, hole type and quantity. The listed range does not guarantee suitability for every material or tapping cycle. If you need to compare holder arrangements, read what to confirm before ordering a tap holder.

Application scenarios
Typical selection contexts for this series, not customer project claims. Confirm machine compatibility and cutting conditions for your setup.
Morse taper tapping
Selecting a tap holder for a confirmed machine connection and cycle.
Dedicated tap stations
Keeping one holder setup for a defined tap and thread requirement.
Workshop replacements
Matching an existing rigid holder by taper, code and tap connection.
Inspection & order review
Specify the dimensions, tolerances and records your order requires. Acceptance criteria must be agreed for the selected model.
Catalog fields to check
- Morse taper
- Tapping range
Check the drawing reference faces and units. A catalog size alone does not define a tolerance or an inspection method.
Records to request
List any required dimensional report, material document or model identification photograph in your inquiry. Confirm availability and scope in the quotation.
For a drawing-based part, include the drawing revision and identify the critical dimensions. Website photographs are not inspection reports.
Packaging & delivery
Agree the packing method and photo requirements when confirming your order.
Order-specific photo confirmation
No verified shipment photographs for this series are currently published. Include selected-model, protective-packing and outer-label photos in your order requirements.

Models and specificationsDoes this holder provide axial compensation?
The source calls it a rigid holder and provides no compensation specification.
Can MT2-M hold the complete series range through M24?
No. MT2-M is listed for M3–M12; use the range belonging to the chosen model.
Can the holder make any machine perform rigid tapping?
No. The machine cycle and the complete toolholding arrangement must be suitable and confirmed.
What information is needed beyond the Morse taper?
Provide the tap designation, shank and driving-end dimensions, required reach and machine tapping method.
