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

Norseman Drill & Tool Type 29-AG Machine Screw HSS Reduced Neck Spiral Point Taps

Gold Oxide Performance for Precision Threading

The Norseman Drill & Tool Type 29-AG Machine Screw HSS Gold Oxide High Performance Reduced Neck Spiral Point Tap is engineered for consistent, high-quality threading in demanding production and maintenance environments. Designed with advanced geometry and premium materials, this tap delivers smooth cutting action, reduced torque, and long service life across a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

Reduced Neck Geometry for Lower Torque

Cooler Cutting and Improved Accuracy

The reduced neck design minimizes body-to-hole contact, significantly lowering friction and cutting torque. By reducing heat buildup and drag, the tap runs cooler and more stable at higher speeds. This geometry also improves alignment and helps prevent tap breakage, making the Type 29-AG ideal for continuous-duty and high-production applications.

Spiral Point Design for Efficient Chip Evacuation

Ideal for Through-Hole Threading

Featuring a spiral point (gun tap) configuration, the Type 29-AG pushes chips forward and out of the hole, eliminating chip packing and recutting. This design ensures clean, accurate threads while improving tool life—especially important in automated and CNC machining operations where uninterrupted chip flow is critical.

Gold Oxide Finish for Enhanced Lubricity

Toughness You Can Rely On

The Gold Oxide finish provides low-temperature stress relief that enhances lubricity and reduces friction during cutting. This surface treatment increases tap toughness and wear resistance, promoting smoother thread formation and extended tool life. The result is reliable performance with improved surface finish and reduced risk of galling.

Built for Machine Screw Applications

Precision Threads, Consistent Results

Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), the Type 29-AG is optimized for machine screw threading in materials such as carbon steel, alloy steel, cast iron, and select non-ferrous metals. Its balanced design delivers accuracy, durability, and repeatability trusted by professionals.
