Product Details
The High Speed Steel Ground Threads TMX Fast Spiral Hand Tap features straight flutes and is available in two chamfer styles: plug chamfer, which has a 3-5 thread chamfer length, and bottoming chamfer, which has a 1-2 thread length. This specific model is a #8 - 32 H2, fast spiral, bottoming chamfer, and is made from HSS TMX material. The fast spiral design allows for efficient chip removal by moving the chip up the flute and away from the cut, thereby reducing thread damage and the likelihood of double cutting of chips. This tap is recommended for use with softer materials that produce a stringy type chip.
