Produced with a reduced neck to allow for longer reach, improved coolant flow, and easier chip evacuationManufactured from M35 Cobalt (HSS-E) with a high vanadium content, these taps offer higher heat resistance and red hardness over conventional high speed steel tapsThey can be used for production threading with both conventional or CNC equipment, in a wide range of material groups, including difficult to machine materials such as high tensile strength steels and stainless steelBlack oxide surface treatment provides improved lubricity and helps prevent the formation of built up edgeSpiral point taps are designed for producing through holes in a work piece
