HSS SPIRAL FLUTE & SPIRAL POINT TAPS

When it comes to using a threading tool, the right thread tool bits are required. That’s where Rennie Tool Company comes in to provide thread-cutting tool bits and thread-tapping tool bits alike to carry out these processes. Our HSS tap range is comprised of a wide range of products, HSS straight flute taps, spiral point taps, spiral flute taps and fluteless taps, each of which is designed for unique applications. Although our thread cutter tools are both suited to threading purposes, they differ in shape, meaning they inevitably produce different results. To that end, we’ll go on to discuss the differentiation between our HSS taps below.

HSS SPIRAL POINT TAPS TIN-COATED 

First up in our range of HSS steel taps is our HSS Spiral Point Taps, Tin-Coated. This product is available in a multitude of sizes, including M3 x 0.5, M4 x 0.7, M5 x 0.8, M6 x 1, M8 x 1.25, M10 x 1.5, M12 x 1.75, M16 x 2, and M20 x 2.5. As a result, we can provide our customers with all manner of sizes to bring a number of different ideas to life. 

For coolant distribution, spiral HSS threading taps have pointed taps and straight flutes. Each flute at the cutting chamfer has a slanted angular gash in order to manage the chips. As a result, the bit is most commonly used for tapping threads in through holes. 

Our HSS Spiral Point Taps are coated in tin to extend their lifespan. This makes this HSS tap ideal for tapping through holes, as they push the swarf through.

HSS SPIRAL FLUTE TIN-COATED TAPS 

Next up is our HSS Spiral Flute Tin-Coated Taps. As with our Spiral Point Tap, this is available in various sizes, including M3 x 0.5, M4 x 0.7, M5 x 0.8, M6 x 1, M8 x 1.25, M10 x 1.5, M12 x 1.75, M16 x 2, and M20 x 2.5. From this, we can ensure that our customers are provided with all the tool bits they need to carry out various tasks. 

This HSS tap has flutes that wrap around the tap’s axis in a helical or spiral configuration. They are predominantly used for tapping threads in blind holes, and a spiral-fluted tap pulls the chips out of the hole towards the tap shank and pulls it opposite the tapping direction. 

Our HSS Spiral Flute Taps are coated in tin to extend their lifespan. This makes this HSS steel tap and die set perfect for tapping blind holes.
