High-Performance Spiral-Point Taps for Multiple Materials

Available19 products
These high-performance spiral-point taps can be used for threading multiple materials. They are harder and more wear-resistant than general purpose spiral-point taps, and they provide better precision and accuracy than general purpose 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.

Unified Thread Standard Bright Finish High-Performance Spiral-Point Taps for Multiple Materials

Unified Thread Standard Bright Finish High-Performance Spiral-Point Taps for Multiple Materials
These taps have a unified thread standard. UN coarse (UNC) taps have fewer threads per inch than UN fine (UNF) taps. Compared to UNF taps, UNC taps perform better in threading applications on brittle materials and are less likely to cross thread. Coarse threads can also withstand more physical abuse than fine threads. UNF taps have more threads per inch than UNC taps. Compared to UNC taps, UNF taps perform better in threading applications on thin-walled workpieces and hard materials. Fine threads provide more tensile strength and shear strength than coarse threads. The bright finish on these taps provides a smooth, polished surface.

Hardlube-Coated High-Performance Spiral-Point Taps for Multiple Materials

Hardlube-Coated High-Performance Spiral-Point Taps for Multiple Materials
The hardlube coating on these taps protects them from wear. Sometimes called hardslick, it 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.
