Product Specifications:
This HSSE spiral flute tap is designed for high-volume automotive manufacturing, offering excellent wear resistance and consistent thread quality. The 15° spiral angle ensures efficient chip evacuation in blind holes, while the 3‑flute design provides balanced cutting action. With an overall length of 83mm and working length of 18mm, it is optimized for medium-depth blind holes in engine blocks, transmission housings, and other automotive components.
The M10x1.25 tap performs well in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloys, and cast iron – common materials in automotive production. Although supplied uncoated, TiN coating can be applied upon request to reduce friction and extend tool life in abrasive materials.
Custom options include alternative coatings (TiAlN, AlCrN), left‑hand flutes, and special thread tolerances (6HX, 4H). For OEM automotive applications, this HSSE tap delivers reliable performance and cost‑effective threading.
Spiral flute taps are ideal for blind holes (chip evacuation upward), while spiral point taps are best for through holes.Read full guide →
