====Morse taper collets====
The Morse taper is a common [[machine taper]] frequently used in drills, lathes and small milling machines.  Chucks for drilling usually use a Morse taper and can be removed to accommodate [[Drill bit shank#Morse taper shank|Morse taper drill bits]].  Morse taper collet sets usually employ [[#ER collets|ER collets]] in an adaptor to suit the Morse taper. The adaptor is threaded to be held in place with a [[Drawbar (machine tool)|drawbar]].  They can be used to hold strait-shanked tooling (drills and milling cutters) more securely and with better accuracy (less [[run-out]]) than a chuck.
