Europa Threading Tap - Spiral Flute - Metric Coarse - Oversize for platting +0.1 - HSS-E - Green Ring - M16 x 2

The Europa Spiral Flute Threading Tap is a precision tool designed for metric coarse threading with an oversize +0.1 tolerance, specifically for plating-ready holes. Built for engineers and machinists, it delivers reliable, repeatable threads in demanding environments.

• Threading style: Spiral flute design for efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting, ideal for deep or hard workpieces.
• Thread size and pitch: M16 x 2, metric coarse thread for standard, robust thread engagement.
• Oversize tolerance: +0.1 mm to accommodate plating or finishe d-diameter adjustments without compromising fit.
• Material: HSS-E (high-speed steel with cobalt) for enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and longer tool life.
• Shank type: Straight shank compatible with common tapping machines, drill presses, and hand-tapping setups.
• Identification: Distinctive green ring marks the specialized oversize configuration for quick recognition in toolboxes and workflows.
• Applications: Suited for plated components and assemblies that require slightly larger internal threads to compensate for surface treatments.
• Brand and reliability: Europa threading taps combine durable construction with consistent performance in industrial threading tasks.

This tap is engineered to reduce rework and maximize accuracy when forming internal threads in plated parts. The combination of spiral flutes, cobalt-enhanced HSS, and a precise +0.1 mm oversize specification helps you achieve clean engagement, smoother tapping action, and longer tool life in busy production or repair environments. The green identification ring ensures you can quickly select the correct oversize tap during setup, supporting efficient workflows and dependable results across multiple jobs.
