SU-HT is suitable for stainless steels ahich are sticky and tend to work-harden as well as chrome steel and molybdenum steels.

FC-O

Hand Taps for Cast Irons

FC-O is suitable for hard and abrasive materials such as cast irons.

LA-O

Hand Taps for Die Cast Materials

LA-O is the oversized tap,and is suitable for the materials tending to shurink,such as aluminum alloy die casting ( ADC ) and zinc alloy die castings(ZDC).

AXE-HT

AXE Type Hand Taps

AXE-HT is suitable for aluminum alloy die castings.Having special tough cutting edge design,AXE-HT assures the longer tool life.

MG-HT

Hand Taps with Short Chamfer

Hving short chamfer length pf less than 1thread,MG-HT is most suitable for blind holes with little space in the bottom.

STI-HT

Hand Taps fore Helical Coil Wire Screw Thread Inserts

IN some parts made of comparably soft materials,it sometimes is necessary to strengthen the internal threads and increase their toughness by inserting helical coils into the internal threads previously cut oversize.

PL-1

Hand Taps for Plastics

PL-1 is for thermosetting plastic which is specially hard-to-machine material among plastics.

MC-HT

Long Shank Hand Taps with Internal Coolant Hole

EH-HT

Hand Taps for Hard-to-Mchine Materials

EH-PO is suitable for hard steels pf 35-45HRC,such as forgings and refined steels of high carbon steels and alloy steels,and die steels.

X Series-------------------------------------------------------------------------

X Series derive the maximum performance from high facility machining centers and high precision toolings.

Features

• X Series are the taps that derive the maximum performance from most modern high facility machining centers and high precision toolings.
• Original role of taps is to "cut threads". From this view point, YAMAWA has developed the most suitable cutting edge design from re-desining basic tap geometry.
• Superb development in the run-out tolerance of whole tap and in shank roundness has enabled the taps to cut consistent and high quality threads even in higher tapping speed area.

Plus Series -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have 2 line-ups in Plus Series depending on the hole shape, +SP for blind hole and +PO for through hole.

Features of "+SP", blind hole use

1. With the thread portion designed most suitablely for middle tapping speed area on machining centers, +SP is the tap for blind hole use.
2. The use under full rigid lead feed realizes higher efficiency.
3. Size range is the coarse threads from M2 to M6.

Features of "+PO", through hole use

1. For middle tapping speed area on machining centers.
2. Higher efficiency under full rigid lead feed.
3. Size range: coarse threads from M2 to M6.

I Series for general purpose----------------------------------------------

ISP  I Series, Spiral Fluted Taps for general purpose

IPO I Series, Spiral Pointed Taps for general purpose

IPO is suitable for tapping general fasteners made from thin steel sheets such as SPC and SPH, and such soft steels lower than SS400 and S20C. IPO is oxided to be suitable for these materials. 

IHT I Series, IHT Hand Taps for general purpose

IHI is suitable for tapping general fasteners made from thin steel sheets such as SPC and SPH, and such soft steels lower than SS400 and S20C.

Standard Tap Series--------------------------------------------------------

In Standard Tap Series, there are 3 kinds of taps, HT(Hand Taps),SP(Spiral Fluted Taps) and PO(Spiral Pointed Taps). To answer wide range of demand, YAMAWA prepares taps not only for Metric threads, but for Unified and Whitworth threads.

Features of "HT"

1. HT's straight flutes can accommodate chips.
2. HT has 3 chamfer types depending on the length of chamfer, taper, plug and bottoming.

Features of "SP"

1. Spiral flutes pull out chips backward against tapping direction.  SP is most suitable for blind hole tapping.
2. With excellent cutting performance, SP is suitable for sticky materials.

Features of "PO"

1. Spiral pointed flutes push chips forward in the direction of tapping. PO is most suitable for through hole tapping.
2. PO has less tapping torque due to less chip trouble.

Ripe Tap Series--------------------------------------------------------------

In connecting pipes and pipe parts, these pipe taps are used mainly for pipe threads of mechanical joints.

Features

• There are 2 types of pipe taps, one for parallel threads and the other for taper threads. The pipe taps for parallel threads are used for cutting the parallel threads to be used maily for mechanical joints.  The pipe taps for taper threads are used for cutting taper threads to be used for pressure tight joints, such as water pipes and gas pipes. Taper threads are the threads which diameter reduces on the cone shape.

Roll Tap Series---------------------------------------------------------------

Also called forming taps.  With no cutting edges, Roll Taps form threads without producing chips.

Features

• Roll Tap is the tap that forms threads by deforming materials, producing no chips.  Roll taps are most suitalbe for blind hole tapping in softer materals.
• Roll taps have no flutes for chip ejection, but can have oil grooves for good lubricant supply.
• Threads formed by roll taps are very strong and have less deviation on their pitch diameters.

Cabide Tap Series------------------------------------------------------------

Carbide taps are difficult to break on continuous tapping.

Features

• Carbide Taps are made from ultra micro grain carbide which features high wear resistance and toughness.
• Carbide taps are suitable for high volume tapping and continuous tapping.  They are difficult to break and have high durability.

Please verify product search or catalog for more information.
