BX6

 

The HSS Taps Series BX6 represents a top-tier line of high-speed steel taps, meticulously engineered for a broad spectrum of threading applications. Ideal for industries such as automotive, aerospace, and general engineering, these taps excel in threading materials like aluminum, mild steel, and stainless steel.

Constructed from high-grade high-speed steel, the Series BX6 taps offer superior wear resistance and robustness, maintaining their sharpness even during prolonged use. The taps come with both straight and spiral flutes, with spiral flutes particularly designed for effective chip evacuation in blind hole applications. This design minimizes clogging and breakage risks, ensuring smooth and efficient threading operations.

The BX6 series is available in a comprehensive range of sizes and pitch configurations to cater to various threading needs. This includes taper taps for initiating threads, plug taps for versatile threading, and bottoming taps for threading to the bottom of blind holes. This variety guarantees that users can find the perfect tap for every specific threading requirement.

To boost performance, especially in demanding materials, the Series BX6 taps can be coated with advanced coatings such as Titanium Nitride (TiN), Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN), or Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN). These coatings significantly lower friction, enhance surface hardness, and prolong tap life, thereby ensuring improved thread quality and consistent performance.

The HSS Taps Series BX6 is a dependable and versatile solution for professionals seeking high-performance threading tools capable of handling a wide range of materials and conditions with precision and efficiency.
