The Spiral Flute Tap is an exceptional cutting tool designed for precision and efficiency in tapping holes on various materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, brass, or mild steel.

The modified bottoming design ensures clean, accurate holes with minimal blowouts or splintering while reducing stress concentration at the bottom of the hole. Its 2 flute geometry minimizes clogging for quick and effortless drilling and allows for efficient chip removal. This tap also features a Class 6H fit which ensures a snug thread-form fit for better concentricity and less thread stripping, making it an ideal choice for professionals, machinists, DIYers, or hobbyists who require superior cutting precision and quality threads.
