Emkay Tools TiN Coated HSS Spiral Point High Performance Machine Tap 2.3x0.40mm

HSS Spiral Point Machine Tap is made from high speed steel and coated with titanium nitride for long lasting performance, a perfect choice for tough materials such as stainless steel, aluminium and magnesium alloys. The shape ensures reliability in the application, with increased cutting capacity, improved chip breaking and superior surface finish. This will make an excellent choice of tap for through hole tapping applications, particularly when machining materials prone to hydrogen embrittlement, such as aluminium and magnesium alloys.

A spiral-point design allows the tap to drill an accurate pilot hole in seconds without breaking or cracking the workpiece. Featuring a long spiral point and micro grain carbide coating, this tool produces a consistent finish on all materials, including steel, stainless steel and brass. The spiral point machine starts by drilling a small pilot hole and placing the tap into it. Tighten the tap until there is resistance, but not too much pressure applied that it would bend or break your workpiece.
