Clausing 5900 series lathe owners ?

[mmcmdl]

They sold a large taper sleeve for the spindle . Can anyone measure theirs please ? TIA I believe it was a 4 1/2MT to a 3MT .

I need dimensions to determine if it's what I have .

I can go measure tonight. I think I only have a 5C collet adapter (from the MT4.5 spindle taper). But I may have a MT adapter too.

Hey Jason . Measure what you have up for me . If it fits the 5900s , it came with your lathe and I just found it while cleaning up .

Edit . The lathe went to NJ not down your way .

I have a MT3 adapter and a 5C adapter. Both are diameter 1.506” at the large end. The mt3 adapter is 1.356” at the small end and 3” long. The 5C adapter is 1.407” at the small end and 2” long behind the front collar.

I had this in my hands yesterday . Today , I can't locate it . I'll find it again when looking for something else tonight .
