Taper Lead Design for Easy Starting
Ideal for Through Holes and Deep Threads
Featuring a 7–10 thread chamfer, the taper style allows gradual cutting action, reducing torque and improving thread accuracy. The straight flute geometry provides excellent chip flow and is suitable for both hand and low-RPM machine tapping operations.
-
Gradual cutting reduces the risk of tap breakage
-
Straight flute design for efficient chip evacuation
-
Perfect for starting threads in through holes
Titanium Nitride Coating for Extended Tool Life
Increased Surface Hardness and Lubricity
The TiN coating significantly boosts the tool’s performance by increasing surface hardness and exceptional lubricity, which reduces friction during tapping and enhances wear resistance. This makes these taps ideal for high-production environments and tougher materials.
-
Extended tool life in abrasive or hard metals
-
Reduced galling and smoother threading action
-
Ideal for alloy steels, stainless steel, and tool steel
