Taps and dies are used to create screw threads (commonly known as threading). Taps make nuts and a die makes a bolt. Forming threads using a tap is known as tapping, but using a die calls the process threading. Threading taps are used in: Our vast range of taps are predominantly made from good grade High speed steel (HSS) with ground threads and include both spiral, fluted and machine taps. These are available in right and left hand threads and cover the widest range of imperial and metric thread forms such as Metric Fine/coarse, UNC, UNF, UNEF, UNJF, UNS, BSW, BSF, BA, Cycle, BSB, GAS, ME, BSP, BSPT, NPT, Acme, Trapezoidal and NS.

Threading taps are used to create threads for bolts in materials like metals and plastics. Threading taps work like a drill but due to the unique shape of a tap, when they are screwed into a piece of material screw threads are created. In comparison to our Carbon Tap range, these taps and dies have a Higher tolerance& Longer tool life (better suited for larger/production volumes ofuse)Straight Flute Taps: most commonly used type of tap and suitable for blind or though hole thread production in most materials, mainly steel and cast iron. These collect chips in the straight flutes of the tool.
