Norseman Drill & Tool Type 740 Fractional Taper Taps
Dependable Hand Tapping and Re-Threading Solutions
Norseman Drill & Tool Type 740 Fractional Taper Taps are engineered to provide smooth, accurate thread cutting for hand tapping and re-threading applications. Manufactured from super tough carbon steel, these taps deliver the durability, control, and reliability required in maintenance, repair, and general shop environments where precision matters.
Super Tough Carbon Steel Construction
Strength You Can Feel
Type 740 taper taps are produced from high-quality carbon steel designed to withstand the stresses of manual tapping. This material offers excellent toughness and resistance to breakage, making these taps ideal for controlled hand use. The carbon steel construction also provides consistent cutting action, allowing users to feel the thread engagement and maintain proper alignment throughout the tapping process.
Taper Tap Design for Easy Thread Starting
Smooth Entry and Accurate Alignment
The tapered chamfer on Type 740 taps features a gradual lead that helps start threads easily and accurately. This design reduces the chance of cross-threading and minimizes cutting torque, making it especially effective for hand tapping. The progressive thread engagement produces clean, well-formed threads while improving operator control.
Fractional Sizes for Versatile Applications
Ideal for Repair and Maintenance Work
Norseman Type 740 Fractional Taper Taps are commonly used for starting new threads or restoring damaged threads in fractional-size holes. They perform well in materials such as mild steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and other non-hardened metals. These taps are widely used in fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and field repair applications.
