Use the extra-long shank to thread deep and hard-to-reach holes.

Sized to cut oversized threads, these tools are often used to tap holes where the threads will shrink due to heat treatment or plating.

Often used for thread repair and occasional hand tapping, these carbon steel taps can thread holes in most metal and plastic, but they have a shorter tool life than standard taps.

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.

These taps cut left-hand threads while keeping chips clear.

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

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.

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.

A high helix angle provides the cutting strength needed to tap threads in titanium. These cobalt steel taps have an open flute design that keeps chips clear, so they don't need to be reversed to prevent buildup.

Tap threads into hardened steel and iron. These cobalt steel taps have straight flutes for high durability.

The cutting teeth are shaped to cut smooth threads in soft pipe and conduit material.

Also known as interrupted-thread taps, these have extra space between the cutting threads, so large chips fall without packing and high amounts of lubricant can flow between the tap and the workpiece.

Tap left-hand threads for pipe and conduit.

With an extra-long shank, these taps have extended reach for tapping deep and hard-to-reach areas in pipe and conduit.

Made of cobalt steel, these taps are for use on hard pipe and conduit material, such as hardened steel.
