What is a 7 24 taper?
One of the most common self-locking tapers is the Morse taper. These holders have a cone that tapers at 3.5 ” (88.9mm) per foot and are often called 7/24 tapers (7 ” of taper per 24 ” of axial length), or steep tapers.
How do I identify my Morse taper?
Morse Taper & ASA (also #1, #2, & #3 B&S) Tapers may be identified by measuring the diameter of the hole at the face (or gage line) of the spindle or by the location, length and width of the tang slot. Shanks are identified also by the gage diameter and by the length of the shank or tang thickness.
What are taper sizes?
Tapers range from a Number 2 to a Number 20. The diameter of the big end in inches is always the taper size divided by 8, the small end is always the taper size divided by 10 and the length is the taper size divided by 2. For example, a Jarno #7 measures 0.875″ (7/8) across the big end.
What is the taper for a BT30?
Tapers & Sizes
| Size | D–1 | F |
|---|---|---|
| BT30 | 1.250 (31.75) | 0.866 (22.00) |
| BT40 | 1.750 (44.45) | 1.063 (27.00) |

How are tapers measured?
Now, tapers are designated as the change in diameter per unit length along a shaft. This is twice the value of the trigonometric tangent of the angle between the shaft’s sloping side and its axis of rotation. I measured an angle of 16.7 degrees, The taper was calculated as 0.1864 inch per inch.
Why do tapers lock?
A taper machined onto two mating parts such that when the parts are mated the frictional forces are so great will not rotate or move with respect to one another. No clamping forces are required to keep the parts joined, but considerable force is required to separate the items.
How do you measure a taper?
You can measure the taper bore of a propeller with digital vernier calipers. Measure the overall length of the boss (hub) of propeller Measure the keyway width. Check how the old prop fits the taper shaft and the amount of draw – i.e. the overhang distance at the nut end so the prop tightens on the taper properly.
