High-Performance Spiral-Point Taps for Steel & Stainless Steel

Available1 product
These high-performance spiral-point taps provide better precision and accuracy than general purpose spiral-point taps when used for threading holes in steel and/or stainless steel. High-performance spiral-point taps are harder and more wear-resistant than general purpose spiral-point taps. The taps have straight flutes with a spiral point that pushes chips in front of the tap as it moves into a hole and out the other side, eventually forcing the chips out of the hole. They create internal threads in through holes and are installed into a toolholder on a machine such as a lathe or CNC machine to operate.

Hardlube-Coated High-Performance Spiral-Point Taps for Stainless Steel

Hardlube-Coated High-Performance Spiral-Point Taps for Stainless Steel
These taps are designed for tapping stainless steel. They have a hardlube coating that protects them from wear. Sometimes called hardslick, hardlube has an inner layer of titanium aluminum nitride (TiAlN) and an outer layer of tungsten carbide/carbon (WC/C). The TiAlN layer withstands high temperatures and protects the taps from wear. The WC/C layer has a low coefficient of friction and helps prevent chips from sticking to the tool in dry-machining applications.
