DIN Standard High-Performance HSS-PM Spiral Flute Tap - M8 to M48x5

DIN Standard High-Performance HSS-PM Spiral Flute Tap

High-speed steel powder metallurgy (HSS-PM) spiral flute taps manufactured to DIN standards for medium to large metric threading applications. TiCN-coated for superior performance and extended tool life. Spiral flute geometry evacuates chips upward during threading operations. Premium grade for demanding applications.

Technical Notes:

• HSS-PM powder metallurgy construction provides superior wear resistance and toughness
• 45° helix angle spiral flute design evacuates chips upward, suitable for blind hole applications
• TiCN coating reduces friction and significantly extends tool life
• 6H hexagonal shank for secure tool holding
• Conforms to DIN dimensional standards
• Max 3xd chamfer for general purpose applications
• Premium grade for high-performance applications and difficult materials
• Comprehensive range from M8 to M48 standard pitch, plus M8 to M16 fine pitch options

Applications:

Ideal for demanding threading operations in hardened steels, stainless steels, heat-resistant alloys, and other difficult-to-machine materials. Recommended for blind hole threading where upward chip evacuation is required. Superior performance in high-strength materials compared to standard HSS-E taps.
