Straight Flute Tap: M12x1 Metric Fine, 3 Flute, Plug Chamfer, 6H Class of Fit, HSS, Bright/Uncoated Finish MPN:5976707

This M12 x 1.00 machine tap is commonly used in the automotive, machining or aerospace industries for cutting holes into metal parts requiring an exceptionally smooth finish due to its six-point star flutes minimizing vibration, burr formation or deformation during the tapping process. With an HSS (High Speed Steel) construction, this tap offers durability in high strength steel materials without heating up or losing hardness ensuring long lasting performance even at high speeds or when cutting harder material. Its bright finish provides excellent visibility for better control during use and also prevents contamination of the tapped hole. As a straight flute design, it's suitable for use in conventional lathes, mills or automatic tapping machines requiring consistent performance at faster feeds with an accurate thread form.
