Spiral flute design, upward chip removal. High speed steel tap has high hardness, good toughness, wear resistance. Black nitrogen treatment greatly improve wear resistance, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance. The round die features good abrasion resistance.
Round dies can be used with die wrench (not included). The fastening screws in the middle of the wrench should be inserted into the slot of the die and tightened. Machine taps are used on drill presses, tapping machines, CNC and milling machines, and suggested to be used with tap collets with overload protection.
Recommended feed rate: general steel: 6-15m/min; harder steel: 5-10m/min; stainless steel: 2-7m/min; cast iron: 8-10m/min. The torque caused by too fast feed speed is too large, which can easily cause the tap to break.
