Description
The Wiseman Threading Tools Spiral Point Tap is engineered for serious accuracy in small-diameter, right-hand threading tasks. With a precise +0.002 tolerance and an M5x0.8 pitch, this tap is built to deliver dependable, repeatable threads that fit snugly and perform reliably in demanding assemblies.

Why the spiral point (gun nose) design matters
The spiral point geometry pushes chips forward through the hole, rather than rubbing them into the thread. That forward chip evacuation minimizes clogging, reduces binding, and lowers the torque required to complete the cut. The result is smoother tapping, fewer dwell moments, and cleaner threadforms even in tighter tolerances.
What makes this Wiseman tap unique
- High-precision +0.002 tolerance ensures consistent thread depth and diameter, crucial for mating parts and reliable fastener engagement.
- Spiral point (gun nose) geometry optimizes chip evacuation and minimizes resistance, promoting faster, cleaner tapping in through-holes.
- Right-hand M5x0.8 threading tailored for common metric applications where precise, small-threaded components are essential.
- Precision-engineered tool integrity designed to deliver repeatable performance across multiple jobs, reducing the need for rework.
Ideal use cases
Perfect for fabricators, hobbyists, and professionals who demand tight control over small-threaded assemblies. Use this tap for through-hole applications where accurate thread engagement is critical—instrument housings, small motor mounts, precision enclosures, and other metric components that rely on a reliable M5x0.8 thread.
Practical guidance for best results
- Pair with appropriate lubrication to minimize friction and extend tool life.
- Ensure workpiece is securely clamped and the tap is perpendicular to the work surface for uniform thread formation.
- Apply steady, even pressure and avoid abrupt twists to maintain the +0.002 tolerance across the threaded length.
With the Wiseman Threading Tools Spiral Point Tap, you get a focused solution for small, precise threads that perform consistently in real-world manufacturing and repair scenarios. This tap is built to help you achieve clean, accurate threads faster, with less fuss and rework—so your assemblies fit together with confidence every time.
