Thread Forming Tap: 1/4-20 UNC, Modified Bottoming, Cobalt, TiCN Coated MPN:1400126608

The thread forming tap is designed to create secure, permanent threads in materials like stainless steel, aluminum or copper alloys without the need for a die or secondary operation providing an efficient and cost-effective alternative when traditional tapping methods are not practical or appropriate. Its modified bottoming feature makes it ideal for situations where taps must thread through existing holes left by fasteners while its cobalt construction ensures that strength, heat and corrosion resistance requirements of aerospace applications are met, preventing failure or loss of threads due to harsh environments or temperature fluctuations. Additionally, the TiCN coating on this tap offers further protection against wear, extends tool life, reduces friction allowing for faster and easier cutting into material providing reliable, consistent performance in an extensive range of industries with minimum effort and cost ensuring quality results.
