Taps are used to cut screw threads on the inside surfaces of holes, creating the female half (nut) of the screw. High precision is of vital importance, particularly in areas such as automobile engines, which require precision screws. OSG offers a lineup of taps with diameters in various sizes and with specifications suitable for a wide variety of uses.
- Spiral point taps push chips forward
- Premium powdered metal VC-10 substrate increased hardness for longer life
- OSG V-coating increased hardness, lubricity and wear-resistance
- DIN overall length provides greater reach capability
