Uxcell Metric Hand Tap Set M8 X Thread High Speed Steel Hand Threading Tapping Tool Kit (2 Pieces), 1.25 Taper/Plug Tap,

Metric Hand Tap Set: Thread Size: M8 x 1.25 (Right Hand); Square Shank Width: 5mm/0.2"; Thread Length: 25mm/0.98"; Overall Length: 72mm/2.83"; Precision: H2. Made from M2 (6542) high-speed steel, these taps offer high hardness, good durability, wear resistance, and excellent cutting performance. Two styles: Tapered Taps: Initiate and guide the thread into the workpiece. Commonly used when tapping through holes. Plug Taps: Create deeper threads than tapered taps and are suitable for through-hole and blind-hole applications. Widely Used: The hand tap set is used to rethread damaged or clogged threads or to create new threads. Suitable for tapping shallow or through holes in mild steel, aluminum, iron, copper, and hard plastic. Provides quick down-thread chip removal. Hand Threading Tap: The tapping tool kit is mainly used by hand and is used with a tap wrench. Use proper cutting lubricant or oil during the tapping process to achieve higher quality threads and a more durable screw tap. Tip: Ensure correct alignment, use proper tapping technique, and apply consistent pressure while rotating the tap to create clean, precise threads. Reverse periodically while tapping to disperse chips from the flutes, prevent clogging, and ensure smooth operation.
