Be sure to select the appropriate cutting oil for the complex tapping process and apply anti-rust oil for maintenance after use. Straight Flute and Fluteless Taps are manufactured with a standard Bright Finish whereas the Machine Taps have an Oxidised Finish for best results, dissipating the heat build-up associated with these applications.
Application: Process steel, iron, aluminum, copper and other metals, widely used in thread repair and other processing. These high quality and durable taps and dies, are a fantastic low cost threading solution for general engineers, model engineers, hobbyists and mechanics. Spiral point taps are engineered for efficient chip removal, while the flute design aids in smooth and precise threading operations.Recommended feed rate: General steel: 6-15m/min; harder steel: 5-10m/min; stainless steel: 2-7m/min; cast iron: 8-10m/min.
The taps are used to create screw threads that allow for a secure connection between objects using threaded screws.

Manufactured with precision ground flutes for producing accurate thread forms, Sherwood Taps are available in all the popular thread forms and as straight Flute Hand Taps in 3 leads, Fluteless, Spiral Flute, or Spiral Point Machine Taps and also Long Series. HSS Machine Tap is a specialized tool meticulously crafted for creating metric coarse threads in metal materials.Use the tap to cut into a hole while the die set is used to cut onto a cylindrical surface, creating a bolt. Before tapping confirm whether the diameter of the round hole is appropriate, and to take protective measures when working. These come with a vap surface treatment making them suitable for use on Stainless Steel (also good for Steel). it can be used with manual equipment or special processing consoles, such as tapping machines, drill-in-one bench drills, CNC lathes, machining centers, etc. The plug tap and taper tap both have a straight flute design, making them suitable for a range of general-purpose tapping applications.
The "SP/FLT" designation signifies that this tap is a spiral point (SP) tap with a flute (FLT) design.The taps come in a case made of impact-resistant PP (polypropylene), ensuring that the taps stay safe if the case is damaged or dropped. These Spiral Point/Gun Nose thread taps are designed for redirecting chips out of the hole whilst threading for a clean and precise result.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Straight flute design, used for through hole and shallow blind hole tapping, not for blind hole tapping. The TRE31 series is for machining metric fine threads and has a spiral flute geometry for blind hole tapping. Tap and dies can also be used to clean existing threads, freeing the grooves from build-up or dirt and debris.You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Tap and die sets are used by engineers, metalworkers, and mechanics to cut internal or external threads, allowing two or more pieces of metal to screw together. EW Equipment has been trading for over 50 years, we can offer expert advice and knowledge for the best tooling for the job. Round dies are suitable for general purpose threading, widely used in thread repair or cleaning the external thread. We started exhibiting at model engineering exhibitions in 1994 and realised from the shows that people wanted quite specialised tooling for their machines and also a wide range of tooling which they could adapt to suit their needs.
