Precision Twist Taps & Tapping Tools

 (2 product groups)


Spiral Flute Taps

A spiral flute tap is a type of tap with helical grooves designed to pull chips upwards and out of the hole during tapping, especially in blind holes and ductile materials. This prevents chip buildup, leading to better thread quality, reduced tap breakage, and improved cutting efficiency. Different helix angles are available for various materials.

Spiral Point Taps

A spiral point tap (or gun tap) is designed for tapping through holes. Its key feature is an angled cutting face that pushes chips forward and out of the hole. This allows for faster tapping, better thread quality, and reduced tap breakage compared to other taps in through-hole applications.
