The Straight Flute Tap is a widely used tool designed for cutting both external and internal threads on various materials, from aluminum to hardened steel. The tap features an exceptional balance of thread creation and chip evacuation while minimizing torque requirements during tapping thanks to its self-centering spiral flutes that keep the tool focused on the workpiece throughout the process. Vanadium High-Speed Steel construction enables the tap's durability, offering wear resistance and strength even in high-temperature conditions without compromising hardness. As a result, users can achieve superior thread quality at reduced expenses due to the ability to maintain sharp edges for an extended period compared to traditional high-speed steel taps. With its versatility, industries such as automotive, aerospace, medical, and machine shops turn to the Straight Flute Tap when seeking precision and durability during thread production processes on various materials.
