Chip-Clearing Taps for Through Holes

Keep chips clear while tapping. Also known as gun taps, these have spiral-point flutes that push chips ahead of the tap and out of through holes.

Long-Reach Chip-Clearing Taps for Through Holes

Clear chips while tapping deep and hard-to-reach holes. These taps have an extra-long shank for extended reach.

Oversize Chip-Clearing Taps for Through Holes

Create oversized threads while keeping chips clear. These taps are sized for use in holes where the threads will shrink due to heat treatment or plating.

Chip-Clearing Taps for Closed-End Holes

The spiral flute design pulls chips back toward the tap, so chips won't accumulate in closed-end holes.

Combination Drill Bit/Taps

Drill holes and cut threads without switching tools.

Hex Shank Combination Drill
Bits/Taps for Drills and Screwdrivers

With a drill bit point to drive into the workpiece, these taps can drill and tap holes in a single step. A 1/4" hex shank connects them directly to tools such as drills and power screwdrivers.

Taps for Steel and Stainless Steel

These taps are made of cobalt steel for higher strength and wear resistance than standard taps. Their flutes are designed to keep chips clear, so they don't need to be reversed to prevent buildup.

Taps for Aluminum, Brass, and Plastic

Coated with chromium carbide or titanium carbonitride (TiCN), these cobalt steel taps cut smoothly through soft material to produce accurate threads.

Taps for Nickel

To tap nickel and other hard material, these cobalt steel taps have high cutting strength. Their flutes are designed to keep chips clear, so they don't need to be reversed to prevent buildup.

JIS Thread Taps

Produce metric threads that meet Japanese Industrial Standards.

Thread Mills

Cut a range of thread sizes with a single tool. These thread mills can also produce both right-hand and left-hand threads.

Hex-Shank Combination Drill Bit/Tap
Sets for Drills and Screwdrivers

Drill and tap holes in a range of diameters. With a drill bit point to drive into the workpiece, these tools can drill and tap holes in a single step. Connect them directly to drills, power screwdrivers, and other tools that accept a 1/4" hex shank.

Chip-Clearing Tap and Drill Bit Sets for Through-Holes

Also known as gun taps, the taps in these sets have spiral-point flutes that push chips ahead of the tap and out of through holes.

Chip-Clearing Tap Sets for Through-Holes

Sets include multiple tap sizes for threading different hole diameters.
