Tap - 1-72 Spiral Point Plug Tap

1-72 Spiral Point Plug Tap

• Spiral point construction drives chips ahead of the tap,
permitting higher speeds and faster cutting with less torque.
• Recommended for higher tensile strength production tapping applications.
• Plug style spiral point taps are ideal for production tapping of through holes.

Use a #53 bit to drill the hole you want to tap. You may want to drill a slightly larger hole (1/16" Drill) in difficult to to tap materials like titanium. This will reduce the chance of your tap breaking and the titanium will still be strong enough to hold the shallower threads.
