Learn more about Klarna
Description
The Europa Threading Tap features a Spiral Point design tailored for metric coarse threading, delivering reliable, precise results in through-holes. Built for engineers and busy workshops, it combines robust materials with clear identification to support efficient, consistent threading work.
- Threading type: Spiral Point (gun-tap) geometry optimized for metric coarse threads, directing chips forward for smooth through-hole tapping.
- Material: HSS-E (high-speed steel with cobalt) for enhanced heat resistance and longer tool life under demanding cutting conditions.
- Size: M20 x 2.5, a standard coarse pitch suitable for a wide range of common fasteners and assemblies.
- Identification: Red ring marking provides quick recognition of the specialized spiral-point configuration in busy environments.
- Shank type: Straight shank compatible with both hand tapping and machine-tapping setups for versatile use.
- Applications: Ideal for through-holes in steel and other metals where fast, repeatable threading is required.
- Finishing: Precision-ground flutes deliver clean threads and stable performance across multiple cuts.
The Europa Spiral Point tap is designed to deliver consistent thread quality with efficient chip evacuation, reducing the need for rework in high-demand production. Its cobalt-enhanced HSS-E composition offers dependable durability in challenging materials, while the red-ring cue keeps the exact configuration easy to locate during setup. Perfect for engineers and technicians who value accuracy, repeatability, and a reliable tool for everyday through-hole threading tasks.
