Gold Oxide Finish for Enhanced Lubricity

Reduced Friction and Increased Tap Toughness

The gold oxide treatment provides low-temperature stress relief, enhancing the tap's lubricity and reducing cutting friction. This increases toughness and promotes longer tool life.

• Gold oxide improves lubrication and chip evacuation

• Reduces heat buildup during high-speed tapping

• Enhances tool durability and wear resistance
