Straight Flute Hand Tap
-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --
Product Overview
This tap uses straight flutes and is built for general-purpose hand tapping rather than high-speed machine cycles, typically supplied as a taper, plug and bottoming set so an operator can start a thread easily and finish it to full depth, including in blind holes. It is the standard choice for field repair, maintenance and low-volume prototype work.
We supply this tap to maintenance departments, field service teams and general machine shops that need a reliable hand-tapping tool for occasional thread-cutting and repair work rather than continuous CNC production.

- Taper, plug and bottoming set lets an operator start the thread easily and still finish to full depth, including in blind holes.
- Simple, versatile design handles both through and blind holes reasonably well without needing two specialized tap types.
- Lower cost than production-grade spiral taps, which suits occasional-use maintenance and repair work.
- HSS construction gives reasonable tool life for typical maintenance and field-service tapping volumes.
- Widely compatible thread class, so threads cut with this tap accept standard off-the-shelf fasteners.
