FS: Royal 5c collet nose piece for B&S 18 spindle

[aribert]

I'll start with the same weasel words as I used on the spindle reducer sleeve: I am limited in what tools/skills I have available to measure tapers. I have taken some quick and dirty measurements with a cheap caliper to establish that this taper is a B&S #18. I am not aware of any similar tapers in this size range - if there are others, please educate me. Taper measurements taken a nominal 3 inches apart. 5c collet not included. Royal brand. $175 + $17.25 for a USPS medium flat rate box in the US. If my price is out of line, please educate me. PayPal or check/MO (will hold shipping till check/MO clears).

Thats for a headstock spindle with a ASA 350 taper, not B & S 18. Its marked 350 on the flange. I had in the past that was marked with 200 for an ASA 200 spindle. It was a Royal brand, too.

Agree on the ASA 350 taper. I saw what looked like 35 space 0 and guessed that it was a shop marking. THank you for posting.

I've learned a bit about larger tapers in the past few days. I did not know that ASA tapers existed. Before misidentifying the taper as a B&S18, I just assumed that MT continued past 7. Since I can't edit the title anymore, I will create a new listing with the correct taper for both items in a few days.

It's been a learning experience to all of us!

I created a new listing since the title and my original posting is misleading. Now listed here: https://www.practicalmachinist.com/...ece-350-to-5mt-spindle-sleeve-reducer.408919/
