Tin-Coated, Spiral Point Hand Taps
- Spiral-Pointed taps, or Machine Taps, were originated to solve the problem of tap breakage in through hole tapping
- The Machine Tap shoots chips ahead of the cutting action, thus reducing loading and clogging in the flutes
- They are recommended for use in through or blind holes which allow for chip accumulation in the bottom of the hole
- Ideal for threading a wide variety of ductile materials, copper and copper alloys, brass and non-metallics
