Drill America 1-1/4-8 UNS High Speed Steel Tap Set

The Drill America DWT Series High Speed Steel hand taps are the most versatile taps for hand use or for tapping under power. These hand taps are popular for use in general machine tapping or CNC tapping, whether for re-threading or making new threads.

The High Speed Steel Hand Taps come in three distinct styles: Taper Style, Plug Style, and Bottom Style. The Taper Style starts the thread square with the workpiece, the Plug Style is generally used in through holes, and the Bottom Style generates the thread to the bottom of the hole. A tap set typically contains one taper, one plug, and one bottoming tap.

These high-speed steel hand taps are suitable for a wide range of applications, as they feature just the base substrate without any additional treatment or coatings. They are versatile tools that can be used to create new threads or re-thread damaged and/or jammed threads.

The Taper Style tap is designed to start the thread square with the workpiece, ensuring a seamless and precise thread formation. The Plug Style tap, on the other hand, is typically used in through holes, providing a reliable and consistent threading process.

The Bottom Style tap is particularly useful for generating threads all the way to the bottom of the hole, making it an essential tool for applications that require complete thread coverage. By offering these three distinct styles, the Drill America DWT Series High Speed Steel hand taps cater to a wide range of tapping requirements, from general machine tapping to more specialized CNC tapping operations.

The uncoated nature of these hand taps allows them to be suitable for a vast array of applications, as the base substrate can withstand a variety of materials and environments without the need for additional surface treatments or coatings. This versatility makes the Drill America DWT Series High Speed Steel hand taps a go-to choice for professionals and hobbyists alike, whether they are working on general machine parts or more intricate CNC-machined components.

In conclusion, the Drill America DWT Series High Speed Steel hand taps are a highly versatile and reliable solution for both hand-operated and power-driven tapping tasks. With their three distinct styles and uncoated design, these hand taps can handle a wide range of threading applications, from creating new threads to re-threading damaged or jammed ones.
