Straight Flute Taps

Plug chamfer hand tap. 3 - 5 incomplete threads before cutting. Used in all types of hand and machine tool operations for ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Ground thread for better surface finish and tighter tolerances. Best used for tapping through holes. Manufactured from high-speed steel. Use for tapping in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous materials. Made in the USA.

HSS for added wear resistance & better lubricity of tool surface which increases tool life & productivity. 18 piece set in metal index.

Brubaker Tool 4174932 Spiral Point Tap 3/8"-16, 3 Flute, H3 Chamfer Style: Plug These taps are primarily designed for tapping through holes, however, they can also be used in blind holes which are deep enough to allow for chip accumulation in the bottom of the hole. The spiral point forces the chips ahead of the tap, thereby preventing clogging and recutting of chips. Long holes, in excess of 1-1/2 diameters, can be tapped as a result. They can be used by hand or under power and are suitable for tapping most materials, especially those with high ductility.

Taper chamfer hand tap. 7 - 10 incomplete threads before cutting. Used in all types of hand and machine tool operations for ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Ground thread for better surface finish and tighter tolerances. Known as a starter tap. Best used for tapping a through hole, but may also be used in a blind hole that has ample clearance at the bottom of the hole. Also, effective when tapping hardened steels. Manufactured from high-speed steel. Use for tapping in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous materials. Made in the USA.

Bottoming chamfer hand tap. 1 - 2 incomplete threads before cutting. Used in all types of hand and machine tool operations for ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Ground thread for better surface finish and tighter tolerances. Best used for tapping a blind hole and when threading is need closer to the bottom of a blind hole. Manufactured from high-speed steel. Use for tapping in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous materials. Made in the USA.
