Europa Threading Tap - Spiral Flute - Metric Coarse - HSS-E - Yellow Ring (Stub Type) - M18 x 2.5

The Europa Threading Tap is a precision tool built for metric coarse threading in metalworking environments. Designed with a spiral point and stub shank, it delivers reliable performance in shallow holes and tight spaces while maintaining accurate threads.

• Design: Spiral Point threading tap with a spiral flute for efficient cutting and smooth chip flow.
• Thread: Metric coarse thread — M18 x 2.5 — suitable for general-purpose threading in various metals.
• Material: HSS-E (high-speed steel with cobalt) for enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and longer tool life in demanding workloads.
• Shank: Stub-type with a yellow identification ring, optimized for shallow holes and restricted clearances.
• Drive interface: Square drive end for secure engagement with taps, wrenches, or machine tool holders.
• Brand: Europa — a trusted name in reliable threading solutions with consistent performance.

With its cobalt-enhanced steel and precise geometry, this Europa tap delivers clean, consistent threads and extended service life even in tough materials. The stub design enhances rigidity in constrained workspaces, while the spiral point directs chips forward to minimize clogging and improve cycle times. Ideal for maintenance, fabrication, and production tasks requiring metric coarse threads, it pairs with standard tap handles or machine tooling to help you achieve accurate results, quickly and reliably.
