Drill America DWT64009 3/4-14 NPT High Speed Steel 5 Flute Pipe Tap, DWT Series

The Drill America DWT Series Qualtech pipe tap is suitable for threading a wide variety of both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The nominal size of a pipe tap corresponds to the size of the pipe fitting to be tapped, not the actual size of the tap itself. The thread tapers 3/4 of an inch per foot, and all pipe taps are furnished with a 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 thread chamfer. NPT threads require the use of a "sealer" such as Teflon tape or pipe compound.

High-speed steel tools are well-suited for most general-purpose applications, offering a combination of hardness and toughness for wear resistance. Uncoated tools feature only the base substrate without any additional treatment or coatings, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. These tools have a round shank with a square end.

Straight flute tools allow chips to collect in the flutes as they cut, and are well-suited for most applications in shallow cuts. Right-hand cut tools have a cutting action that engages when they are run in a clockwise direction.

The Drill America DWT Series Qualtech pipe tap is designed to handle a diverse range of materials, with the nominal size of the tap matching the pipe fitting to be tapped. The thread taper and chamfer ensure a secure fit, while the use of high-speed steel provides the necessary hardness and toughness for effective performance.

Uncoated tools, with their simple substrate construction, offer versatility across a wide variety of applications. The round shank with square end, as well as the straight flute design, contribute to the tool's overall effectiveness in shallow cutting operations. Additionally, the right-hand cut action allows for a smooth, controlled cutting motion when operated in a clockwise direction.

Overall, the Drill America DWT Series Qualtech pipe tap and its associated high-speed steel tools are well-suited for a broad range of threading and cutting tasks, providing a combination of durability, versatility, and precision that can meet the demands of various industrial and DIY applications.
