Usage
The Jeu de tarauds acier rapides M20 / PCE is designed for precise internal thread cutting in metalworking applications, suitable for maintenance, repair, and industrial production environments.
Advantages
- Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) for enhanced wear resistance and prolonged tool life.
- Delivers consistent, accurate threads even in tough steels and alloys up to a hardness of approximately 900 N/mm².
- M20 sizing enables compatibility with metric bolts and standardized components in fabrication projects.
- Optimized flute geometry supports efficient chip evacuation for cleaner cuts and reduced risk of jamming during tapping.
- The taps can be used by hand or with machine tools; however, lubrication is recommended to maximize lifespan.
Specifications
- Material: High-speed steel (HSS) ensures durability under demanding machining conditions.
- Tolerance: Manufactured to ISO metric thread standards for interchangeability in industrial contexts.
- Size: M20 tap; supports threads with a nominal diameter of 20 mm and standard pitch per DIN regulations (typically coarse pitch unless specified).
- Tapping depth capability varies by material but typically reaches up to the full length of the tap’s working section without loss of precision or risk of breakage under proper use.
How it works
This tap set is used to manually or mechanically cut interior threads into pre-drilled holes. Insert the appropriate tap into a handle or chuck, align carefully with the hole axis, apply steady rotational force while advancing gently—using lubricant as needed—to achieve cleanly formed threads suitable for metric fasteners.
