Thread Tap | Tapping Tool | Thread Tapping Tool

Types and Uses of Threading Taps:

Taps come in varied types, each used for different/specific applications, including:

Plug Taps - Like taper taps, plug taps feature 3 to 5 rows that are ground down for creating a thread by leaving more shafts.

Taper Taps - Also called starter taps, start a new thread using the first seven to ten threads with a flat profile.

Forming Taps - These taps compress for creating threads instead of cutting.

Bottom Taps - These square taps do not feature ground-down threads, allow cutting threads at the hole bottom for deep threads, and are used after a taper or plug tap has been used.

Straight Flute Taps - They are mostly ideal for short-chipping materials.

Spiral Point Taps - These taps push chips in the forward direction and are designed for through-hole uses.

Spiral Flute Taps - They are designed for blind-hole applications.
