Thread Tap Size: Metric thread size: M8 x 1.25 (right hand); thread length: 22mm / 0.87"; total length: 71mm / 2.8"; square shank width: 6mm / 0.24"; accuracy: H2. Straight Flute Tap: The tapping tool adopts straight flute design, clear threads, and right hand cutting direction. Threading tap provides rapid downward chip removal to achieve efficient thread cutting, suitable for processing through holes or shallow holes.. Wide Applications: Screw thread tap can create new threads or re-thread damaged or jammed threads. Widely used for most metals, iron plate, copper, zinc, alloy steel, abrasive steel, A3 steel, stainless steel, etc.. Add proper tapping oil for higher quality internal threads and more durable taps.. Material & Finish: 6542 (M2) high speed steel tap offers high hardness and excellent wear resistance for durability and longevity, and good cutting performance for clean, precise holes. Titanium coating offers enhanced hardness, corrosion and rust resistance, heat resistance, and reduced friction for smoother tapping.. Tips: Machine tap is used with drill presses, tapping/CNC/milling machines. NOT recommended for hand and electric drill tapping. The higher the hardness, the slower the speed. Drill the holes with a twist drill bit first, then tap with a thread tap. The tapping angle should be 90 degrees vertical and stable..
