Norseman Drill & Tool Type 29-AG HSS Gold Oxide High Performance Reduced Neck Spiral Point Taps

Norseman Drill & Tool Type 29-AG HSS Gold Oxide Reduced Neck Spiral Point Taps

High-Performance Threading for Difficult Materials

Norseman Drill & Tool Type 29-AG HSS Gold Oxide High Performance Reduced Neck Spiral Point Taps are engineered to deliver superior cutting efficiency, extended tool life, and reliable thread quality in demanding applications. Designed for tough materials and high-production environments, these taps combine advanced geometry with premium surface treatment for exceptional performance.

Reduced Neck Design with Spiral Point Geometry

Lower Torque and Superior Chip Control

The reduced neck design minimizes friction between the tap body and the workpiece, resulting in lower torque requirements and smoother cutting action. Combined with the spiral point (gun tap) geometry, chips are pushed forward and out of the hole, improving chip evacuation and reducing the risk of chip packing. This efficient chip flow allows the tap to run cooler and maintain consistent performance throughout the threading cycle.

Gold Oxide Surface Treatment

Enhanced Lubricity and Tap Toughness

Type 29-AG taps feature a Gold Oxide finish, a low-temperature stress-relief treatment that enhances surface lubricity and reduces friction at the cutting edges. This finish increases tap toughness, improves chip flow, and helps prevent edge chipping—especially important when threading hard or abrasive materials. The result is longer tool life and smoother, more accurate threads.

Designed for Difficult Materials

Built for High-Strength Alloys

These high-performance taps are specifically engineered for stainless steel, alloy steels, and high carbon steel. Their advanced tool geometry reduces cutting pressure while maintaining precise thread profiles, making them ideal for aerospace, automotive, energy, and heavy industrial manufacturing.

Ideal for Production and CNC Applications

Consistent Results at Higher Speeds

Norseman Type 29-AG taps are well-suited for CNC machining and high-volume production environments where repeatability, efficiency, and tool longevity are critical.
