Product Specifications:
This HSSE spiral flute tap is manufactured to DIN 15D standard, specifically designed for small-diameter threading in CNC and manual tapping operations. The 15° spiral angle ensures efficient chip evacuation in blind holes, while the 3‑flute design provides balanced cutting action and excellent thread finish. With a compact total length of 70mm and working length of 14mm, it is ideal for shallow to medium-depth blind holes in small components.
The M5x0.8 tap is commonly used in electronics housings, precision machinery parts, automotive sensors, and medical device components. The uncoated HSSE substrate offers good wear resistance for general-purpose machining of carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel (up to 300 series), aluminum alloys, and cast iron. For higher speeds or abrasive materials, TiN or TiAlN coatings can be applied upon request.
Custom options include left‑hand flutes, reduced shank diameters, and special thread tolerances (6HX, 4H). For high-volume production runs, this HSSE tap delivers reliable performance and consistent thread quality, making it a cost-effective choice for precision small-hole threading.
HSSE (cobalt-alloyed) and HSSE-PM (powder metallurgy) taps deliver enhanced threading precision, superior wear resistance, and high heat resistance – ideal for high-speed cutting in hard-to-machine materials. They are widely used in PCB supports, heatsinks, electronic enclosures, motor components, battery mounting holes, optical parts, and microthreads in miniature devices.
