Product Specifications:
This HSS spiral point tap (gun tap) with TiN coating is optimized for high‑speed through‑hole tapping in production environments. The spiral point geometry drives chips forward, eliminating chip congestion and allowing continuous tapping without reverse cycles. The H2 tolerance class ensures precise thread fit for general‑purpose applications where a balanced fit is required – neither too tight nor too loose.
The M6x1.0 tap features a 63mm overall length and 19mm working length, making it ideal for standard nut threading, flange holes, and structural steel components. The TiN (titanium nitride) coating reduces friction and increases surface hardness, delivering 3‑5× longer tool life than uncoated HSS in carbon steel and alloy steel. The 3‑flute design provides a robust core for tapping through materials up to 2× diameter thickness.
Typical applications include automotive brackets, machinery panels, electrical enclosures, and pipe flanges. For abrasive stainless steel, we recommend reducing speed by 20% and using cutting oil. Custom coatings (TiAlN, CrN) and special thread tolerances (H1, H3) are available for OEM orders. Upgrade your through‑hole tapping efficiency with this reliable, TiN‑coated spiral point tap – faster cycles, cleaner threads, and lower cost per hole.
Spiral flute taps are ideal for blind holes (chip evacuation upward), while spiral point taps are best for through holes.Read full guide →
