HSS Taps Feature & Application

Feature:

• The taps have continuous fast spiral flutes to lift and discharge chips from deep blind holes

• Precision ground to insure concentricity of tip & body

• Fully ground smooth flutes & surface treated for effective chip flow

• Premium quality HSS, special heat treatment to remain sharper cut, & reduce wear

• Penetrates faster with less pressure

• All dimensional & element tolerances conform to ASME/ANSI B94.11M

Application:

• Spiral flute taps are ideal for machine tapping deep blind holes in all kinds of materials

• Spiral point taps are ideal for machine tapping through holes or blind holes with adequate bottom clearance. They are called "Gun Taps" because they shoot the chips ahead of the tap. This also reduces loading and chips clogging in the flutes.

Material:

• M2 in stock, and M35, M42 cobalt available as customer requests
