Norseman Drill & Tool Type 29-ACN HSS Titanium Carbon Nitride High Performance Reduced Neck Spiral Point Taps

Norseman Drill & Tool Type 29-ACN HSS Titanium Carbon Nitride Reduced Neck Spiral Point Taps

High-Performance Threading for Demanding Applications

The Norseman Drill & Tool Type 29-ACN HSS Titanium Carbon Nitride (TiCN) High Performance Reduced Neck Spiral Point Tap is engineered for maximum productivity, extended tool life, and consistent threading accuracy in demanding machining environments. Designed for multi-material versatility, this tap delivers outstanding results in high-volume production and precision applications alike.

Reduced Neck Geometry for Lower Torque

Cooler Cutting and Improved Stability

The reduced neck design minimizes surface contact between the tap body and the workpiece, reducing friction and cutting torque. This allows the tool to run cooler, maintain better alignment, and perform reliably at higher speeds. The design also helps reduce tool deflection, improving thread accuracy and surface finish in tough materials.

Spiral Point Design for Efficient Chip Control

Clean Threads and Uninterrupted Cutting

Featuring a spiral point (gun tap) geometry, the Type 29-ACN pushes chips forward and out of the hole, preventing chip packing and breakage. This makes it ideal for through-hole applications and continuous production runs where clean chip evacuation is critical to tool life and thread quality.

Titanium Carbon Nitride (TiCN) Coating Advantage

Harder Than TiN for Extended Tool Life

The Titanium Carbon Nitride (TiCN) coating provides significantly higher surface hardness than traditional TiN coatings. This increased hardness delivers superior wear resistance, reduced edge breakdown, and longer tool life. TiCN also enhances lubricity at the cutting edge, supporting faster cutting speeds and improved heat resistance.

Optimized for Multiple Materials

High Productivity Across Tough Alloys

Designed for stainless steel, nickel alloys, aluminum, and other difficult materials, the Type 29-ACN tap excels in multi-application environments. Its advanced geometry and durable coating make it a reliable choice for CNC machining, production shops, and high-performance threading operations.
