Product Specifications:
This HSSE spiral point tap is optimized for through‑hole tapping where space is limited or a shorter tool is preferred. With an overall length of 80mm (shorter than typical 89mm), it fits tighter machine setups while still providing the M12x1.75 thread depth. The 10mm straight shank includes a side hole, allowing coolant or compressed air to be directed to the cutting zone – a valuable feature for automatic tapping units and CNC machines with external coolant lines.
The TiN‑coated HSSE M35 substrate offers good wear resistance and heat hardness for tapping carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel. The spiral point (gun nose) geometry drives chips forward, making this tap ideal for through holes. The 6H tolerance ensures compatibility with standard metric coarse threads. This tap is not intended for blind holes; for blind holes, please use a spiral flute tap.
Recommended applications include machinery repair, automotive brackets, and production tapping of through holes. Custom coatings and special shank configurations are available for OEM orders. Upgrade your tapping process with this compact, side‑hole equipped spiral point tap.
Spiral flute taps are ideal for blind holes (chip evacuation upward), while spiral point taps are best for through holes.Read full guide →
