Baer Heli Coil Tap is the precision tool you need for impeccable thread repairs and reinforcements with wire thread inserts. Designed for metric M20 x 1.5 applications, this bottoming tap (STI) delivers true, full-depth threads that helicoil inserts can bite into with confidence, even in challenging materials and hard-to-reach blind holes.

Why this bottoming tap matters

The bottoming geometry reaches the entire thread length, ensuring clean, square threads from top to bottom. This creates a reliable seat for helicoil inserts, reducing the chances of partial engagement and improving the insert’s pull-out resistance under load. Crafted for durability and consistency, it’s the tool shop owners, machinists, and automotive technicians reach for when reliability isn’t optional.

Key benefits

  • Deep, full-depth threads for maximum insert engagement and lasting performance.
  • Metric M20 x 1.5 compatibility aligns with common helicoil insert standards for larger, fine-pitched repairs.
  • Precise, burr-free thread formation helps inserts seat smoothly and stay secured over time.
  • Durable, professional-grade construction built to withstand repeated use in demanding environments.

Ideal use cases

Perfect for repairing damaged or stripped threads in metal housings, engine components, and various machinery where a helicoil insert is the chosen solution for restoring strength and service life. Use this tap to create the ideal foundation for a durable insert, delivering reliable engagement and long-term torque resistance.

Practical guidance

  • Prepare the hole to the correct pilot size for M20 x 1.5 helicoil inserts.
  • Apply appropriate cutting lubricant and maintain steady, even pressure to achieve clean threads.
  • Clean chips regularly to prevent binding and ensure a smooth tapping action.
  • Install the helicoil insert per manufacturer instructions to maximize performance.

Choose the Baer Heli Coil Tap for precise, repeatable thread repairs that restore strength and extend the life of your assemblies.
