Straight flute taps like this one are commonly used for threading holes in various materials such as steel, aluminum, brass or cast iron. They are typically used in automotive repair shops, aviation maintenance facilities, machine shops and construction sites where threaded holes need to be created accurately and efficiently. These taps are constructed from high-speed steel (HSS) for optimal durability and resistance against wear during tapping operations. The plug chamfer design minimizes burrs after tapping, reducing the risk of damage to mating threads and ensuring a smooth finish. With its compatibility with various thread sizes such as 1-1/4 - 12UNF threads, this straight flute tap can be applied in diverse industries including automotive, aerospace or general engineering for creating reliable threaded holes that meet required standards.
