Furthermore, this tap comes with a 2B/3B class of fit which assures compatibility for a wide range of materials such as stainless steel, copper, brass, aluminum, and many others. It features an uncoated finish that offers enhanced lubricity while cutting thereby reducing the chances of sticking or rough threads on your parts.
