High-Performance Spiral-Flute Taps for Aluminum
Available218 products
These high-performance spiral-flute taps provide better precision and accuracy than general purpose spiral-flute taps when used for threading holes in aluminum. High-performance spiral-flute taps are harder and more wear-resistant than general purpose spiral-flute taps. The taps have spiral flutes that pull chips out and away from the hole as the tap moves into the hole to create threads, which helps prevent chips from packing in the hole. They create internal threads in blind holes and are installed into a toolholder on a machine such as a lathe or CNC machine to operate.
CrC/C-Coated DIN/ANSI High-Performance Spiral-Flute Taps for Aluminum
The CrC/C coating on these taps is a multilayer coating with a base layer of titanium nitride (TiN) and an outer layer of chromium carbide carbon (CrC/C). It protects the taps from wear when tapping aluminum and other ferrous and nonferrous materials. These taps meet DIN length standards and have a longer overall length than taps that meet ISO, ANSI, and JIS length standards. They also meet ANSI shank standards, which means they measure their shank diameter in inches and fit in standard tools used in the U.S.

Black-Oxide Finish DIN/ANSI High-Performance Spiral-Flute Taps for Aluminum
The black-oxide finish on these taps retains lubricants to improve the taps' wear resistance and chip flow. Black-oxide taps should only be used on ferrous metals. These taps meet DIN length standards and have a longer overall length than taps that meet ISO, ANSI, and JIS length standards. They also meet ANSI shank standards, which means they measure their shank diameter in inches and fit in standard tools used in the U.S.

DLC-Coated High-Performance Spiral-Flute Taps for Aluminum
The diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating on these taps protects them from wear when threading abrasive materials. DLC-coated taps are a cost-effective alternative to diamond-coated taps.
