7227 forum posts 21 photos | PS Would be very surprised if the mandrel taper was a Jarno. Within my limited knowledge , would expect most Lathe mandrels to be a Morse Taper. Pity that the Morse Taper varies from size to size, unlike the Jarno. Howard |

![]() 7881 forum posts 397 photos | With the difference between a Morse and Jarno taper being in most cases within .001" to .002" per inch, it's quite possible that the one will fit the other in a short application like the headstock collar, without the mismatch being noticed? |
