Usage
This rapid steel tap set M14 is designed for precision cutting of internal threads in metalworking applications, particularly suitable for maintenance, repair, and manufacturing tasks using M14 metric threads.
Advantages
- Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) for reliable performance and extended tool life
- Consists of three types: taper, second, and bottoming taps to handle all threading stages
- Right-hand cutting with straight flute design ensures clean thread formation in a range of ferrous metals
- Suitable for use with common tap wrenches (recommended size: 5–20 mm)
- Straightforward manual operation; no special machine required
Specifications
- Taps constructed from HSS M2 grade high-speed steel with ground threads for consistent results [1]
- Sized specifically for M14 x 1.5 mm metric threading; compatible with standard tap wrench sizes [1]
- Can process workpieces between approximately Ø5 to Ø20 mm when used with appropriate holders [1]
- The set includes three taps—taper (for starting), second (intermediate), and bottoming (finishing)
How it works
Select the correct tap type based on the threading stage—beginning with the taper tap—and manually rotate into a pre-drilled hole using a suitable wrench. Progress through second and bottoming taps as needed to complete precise internal threads.
