High speed steel hand taps are the most versatile taps for hand use, or for tapping under power
Hand taps are popular for use in general machine tapping or CNC tapping
High-speed steel tools are good for most general purpose applications, offering a combination of hardness and toughness for wear resistance
Titanium nitride coatings add a hard layer of gold-colored ceramic to the surface that extends tool life and permits faster cutting speeds than uncoated tools
Round shanks allow use with a wide variety of toolholding systems
When run in a counterclockwise direction (right-hand cut) spiral fluted tools evacuate chips up and out of the cut to reduce clogging
Specifications: Thread size: UNC 1/2-13; thread tolerance: H2; thread length: 35mm / 1.37"; plug chamfer and right hand thread cutting. 3 straight flutes are ground to provide downward chip removal
Material & Finish: High-speed steel tool is great for general purpose applications, offering high hardness and toughness. Titanium coating for improving wear and fusion resistance, long service life
Applications: Great for through-hole threads. Can be used for drilling and tapping stainless steel (below 30HRC), aluminum, die steel, ordinary steel, non-ferrous metals, hard plastics, etc.
How to Use: Suitable for drill presses, tapping machines, CNC and milling machines. Used with tapping oil to get higher quality threads and more durable taps
