Wiseman Threading Tools Second Lead Metric HSS Tap Right Hand - M22x1.5

The Wiseman Threading Tools Second Lead Metric HSS Tap Right Hand - M22x1.5 is a purpose-built threading tool designed for professional results in metalworking. Crafted from high-speed steel and precisely ground, this tap delivers clean, true threads with reliable repeatability across a range of common workshop materials.

• High-speed steel, ground thread for accurate cutting and consistent pitch in every hole.
• Uncoated finish provides predictable cutting action and straightforward maintenance, ideal for general-purpose tapping where coatings aren’t required.
• ISO 529 dimensions ensure compatibility with standard metric threads, so M22x1.5 taps thread smoothly into corresponding dies, nuts, and components.
• Right-hand thread means clockwise rotation to cut, matching the most common threading applications.
• Second lead (multi-start) design accelerates material removal and enhances chip evacuation, enabling faster tapping in through-holes without sacrificing thread integrity.
• USA plug lead design tailored for typical workshop setups, making it practical and straightforward to use in standard tapping rigs.
• Single-size precision is built for M22x1.5 threads, providing a reliable solution without the guesswork of multiple options.

Where you’ll reach for this tap: it’s ideal for through-hole work on mild steel, alloyed steels, cast iron, and common non-ferrous metals like aluminum and brass. Whether you’re building a custom part, repairing an engine component, or fabricating mechanical housings, this tap helps you achieve strong, clean threads with fewer passes.

Practical usage notes to get the best results:

• Always pair with appropriate cutting fluid or oil to reduce heat and extend tool life.
• Start the hole with a correctly sized pilot drill, then guide the tap with a tapping wrench or machine tap handle to maintain alignment.
• Make light, even cuts and back off periodically to break and clear chips for consistent threading.
• Inspect finished threads for burrs and finish with a deburr pass if needed.

Why choose Wiseman for threading tasks? This tap embodies practical design tuned for everyday metalworking: precise geometry, reliable HSS performance, and a straightforward, multi-start lead that speeds through holes without compromising thread quality. If you’re updating your toolkit for metric threading projects, this M22x1.5 right-hand tap is a dependable, workhorse option built for durable, repeatable results.
