Norseman Drill and Tool Type 21 Metric HSS Spiral Point Plug Taps
Norseman Type 21 Metric Spiral Point Taps
Precision Metric Threading for Softer Materials
The Norseman Drill and Tool Type 21 Metric HSS Spiral Point Taps are engineered for efficient, high-quality threading in softer materials such as aluminum, wood, brass, copper, and plastic. Crafted from high-speed steel (HSS), these taps offer strength, wear resistance, and reliable performance in both manual and machine tapping operations.
Ideal for metric threading applications across automotive, manufacturing, fabrication, and repair industries, the Type 21 tap is a versatile choice for professionals who demand consistent results and long tool life.
Bright Finish for Improved Chip Flow
Enhanced Performance in Softer Substrates
Featuring a bright finish, these spiral point taps promote smooth chip evacuation and reduce loading or clogging during operation. This finish is especially beneficial when tapping soft or non-ferrous materials, where heat buildup and material adhesion can compromise thread quality.
-
Improves surface finish on threaded holes
-
Reduces friction for cooler cutting
-
Enhances chip flow to prevent jamming or tool breakage
Spiral Point Design for Through-Hole Efficiency
Faster Tapping with Cleaner Threads
The spiral point geometry pushes chips forward, away from the cutting edges, making it ideal for through-hole tapping. This design reduces torque requirements and ensures cleaner, more accurate threads.
-
Optimized for CNC or manual tapping
-
Increased productivity in high-speed applications
-
Prevents chip re-cutting for better thread integrity
