Norseman Drill & Tool Type 30-B Black Oxide Finish Regular Taper Pipe Taps
Dependable NPT Threading for Pipe Fittings and Couplings
The Norseman Drill & Tool Type 30-B Black Oxide Finish Regular Taper Pipe Taps are engineered to deliver reliable, accurate National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads for pipe fittings and couplings across a wide range of industrial applications. Designed for durability and consistent performance, these taps are a trusted solution for professionals who demand precision in both shop and field environments.
Regular Taper NPT Design
Secure, Pressure-Tight Thread Formation
Type 30-B taps feature a standard NPT taper geometry, allowing threads to tighten progressively as the fitting is installed. This taper is essential for creating leak-resistant connections when paired with appropriate sealants or compounds. Precision-ground flutes and thread forms ensure accurate pitch, proper engagement, and compatibility with standard NPT pipe fittings used throughout plumbing, HVAC, fluid transfer, and industrial piping systems.
Black Oxide Finish
Improved Lubricity and Chip Flow
The black oxide surface treatment enhances lubricity, helping reduce friction during threading operations. This finish promotes smoother cutting action, improved chip evacuation, and reduced tool galling—especially beneficial when tapping steel and other ferrous materials. The result is cleaner threads, better surface finish, and dependable performance in everyday pipe threading tasks.
Built for Versatile Material Applications
Reliable Performance in Common Pipe Materials
Manufactured from high-quality high-speed steel, Norseman Type 30-B regular taper pipe taps are well suited for use in carbon steel, mild steel, cast iron, brass, bronze, and other machinable metals.
