Product Specifications:
This 9‑piece HSS spiral flute tap set covers the most common metric coarse thread sizes from M2 to M12. Each tap features a TiN coating for reduced friction and increased wear resistance, making them suitable for blind hole threading in steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and plastics. The spiral flute design evacuates chips upward, preventing packing at the bottom of blind holes – a key advantage over straight flute taps.
The set includes: M2×0.4, M2.5×0.45, M3×0.5, M4×0.7, M5×0.8, M6×1.0, M8×1.25, M10×1.5, and M12×1.75. All taps are manufactured from premium HSS with precision ground flutes and TiN coating (gold finish). The spiral angle (approx. 35‑45°) ensures smooth chip flow, creating clean threads in depths up to 2.5× diameter. Supplied in a durable plastic storage box for organization and protection.
Ideal for maintenance shops, toolrooms, CNC job shops, and DIY enthusiasts. For stainless steel or higher hardness materials, reduce tapping speed and use cutting oil. Upgrade your tapping efficiency with this complete spiral flute tap set – ready for blind hole applications right out of the box.
Spiral flute taps are ideal for blind holes (chip evacuation upward), while spiral point taps are best for through holes.Read full guide →
