Technical Notes:

  • Spiral flute design evacuates chips upward, suitable for blind hole applications
  • HSS-E construction provides heat resistance and durability
  • TiCN coating reduces friction and extends tool life
  • 6H shank tolerance for standard tap holders
  • Conforms to DIN dimensional standards
  • Comprehensive range includes both standard and fine pitch options

Applications:

Suitable for threading operations in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals. Recommended for blind hole threading where upward chip evacuation is required.
