Spiral Point Tap: M18 x 2.5, Metric Coarse, 4 Flutes, Plug, 6H, Cobalt, Bright Finish MPN:9039000180000

The spiral point tap is designed for use in machining and tooling applications to create screw threads by cutting threads into materials such as steel or aluminum, with precision and accuracy. It features a four-flute design that delivers smooth cutting action for reducing vibration and maintaining thread quality while increasing its lifespan significantly. Made from cobalt, this tap offers greater strength, heat, and wear resistance compared to high-speed steel which ensures longer tool life under extreme conditions. Additionally, it has a spiral point that provides fast entry into material starting holes for easy thread formation, reduces thread damage during installation or removal, while offering the option of using either hand or power tools such as drills or screw guns. Its bright finish enables ease in identification and distinguishing of different sizes quickly reducing errors or misalignments when used for creating multiple threaded components or fastening systems thus saving time while ensuring top-quality threads are produced every time in machining and tooling industries where accuracy matters most.
