Series 105M

The HSS Taps Series 105M features a comprehensive line of high-speed steel taps, specifically optimized for threading applications in metric measurements. This series is engineered for superior performance in a variety of materials including aluminum, mild steel, and stainless steel. With their precision and robustness, these taps are ideal for both manual and automated operations in diverse manufacturing environments.

Constructed from high-speed steel, the Series 105M taps boast excellent wear resistance and durability, enabling them to handle the demands of continuous threading tasks without losing sharpness. The design typically includes features like straight flutes or spiral flutes, the latter being particularly effective in ejecting chips upward and out of the way in blind hole applications.

These taps are available in a range of metric sizes and pitch configurations to meet precise threading requirements, enhancing their utility across different industries such as automotive, aerospace, and general engineering. The common configurations include taper, plug, and bottoming taps, allowing users to start threads, create threads to the bottom of blind holes, and finish threads at different depths respectively.

For enhanced performance, especially in tougher materials, the Series 105M taps can also be coated with performance-enhancing layers such as Titanium Nitride (TiN), Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN), or Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN). These coatings significantly reduce friction and increase surface hardness, thereby extending the life of the tap and improving thread quality.
