Machine taps and machine tap sets

Machine taps are used when the screw thread is machine-threaded in drill presses, tapping arms, CNC machines and lathes/milling machines. The machine taps from our range comply with general worldwide standards, including DIN and ISO. DIN 371/6 is the most commonly used standard; DIN 352 is for short taps. There is also the ISO version. Both DIN and ISO machine taps have a metric shank diameter. The machine taps range comprises a value-for-money ECO model from International Tools or a top-quality specialised hardlube coated machine tap from Phantom. The latter machine tap reduces friction in tricky materials, thereby increasing the service life when used on these materials. T

he correct machine tap is chosen by correctly assessing its use.
