Straight flute taps are mainly used for short chipping materials like cast iron and are suitable for both through and blind holes. The flute is mainly used for cutting fluid but with internal coolant, chip evacuation is also possible.
Features
Chamfer C (2-3 threads) and chamfer E (1.5-2 threads). Chamfer E only for ISO K materials used in blind holes with low clearance
High speed powder steel taps for improved strength, wear resistance and tool life
Solid carbide taps for superior tool life and highest productivity
Taps with interrupted threads for ISO N materials to reduce torque
CoolTop coating combines high hardness with good wear resistance
Application
Taps optimized for specific materials
Suitable for both through holes and blind holes
Available in many thread forms and stan¬dards
Depths up to 2.5 × diameter
Available with internal coolant in thread forms M, MF, UNC and UNF
Tolerances:
ISO K: 6H, 6HX, 2B, 2BX, 3B
ISO N: 6H
ISO H: 6H, 6HX
