Straight Flute Tap: 1-12 UNF, 4 Flutes, Bottoming, 3B Class of Fit, High Speed Steel, Bright/Uncoated MPN:MSC-04489118

Straight flute taps are versatile cutting tools widely used for making holes in various materials such as metals, plastics and composites with precision, speed and accuracy during the machining process using a tap-and-die set or by hand. The high-speed steel construction of these taps allows them to maintain their sharp edge for longer periods while cutting without getting blunt easily even when working on hard materials like stainless steels, castings or mild steels. These cutting tools are essential components in the toolkits of mechanics, machinists, DIY enthusiasts as well as professionals working across industries such as aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, jewelry making, instrumentation and many more to produce smooth and precise holes during the fabrication of parts.
