Best Spiral Point Taps in 2025

Used to make new threads or re-thread damaged and/or jammed threads

High Speed Steel Hand Taps come in three styles: Taper Style: Starts the thread square with the workpiece. Plug Style: Generally used in thru holes. Bottom Style: Generate the thread to the bottom of the hole.

High speed steel hand taps are the most versatile taps for hand use, or for tapping under power

Spiral Point Tap: Thread size: M3 x 0.5; thread tolerance: H2; thread length: 15mm / 0.6"; plug chamfer and right hand thread cutting. 3 straight flutes are ground to provide provide downward chip removal, with clear threads and sharp cutting edges.

Material & Finish: 6542 high speed steel metric taps run at high speeds and generate threads quickly and efficiently, offering high hardness (HRC62-64), wear resistance, and good toughness. Titanium coating for improving wear resistance, hardness, heat resistance, lubricity.

Applications: Thread taps are great for through-hole threads. Can be used for drilling and tapping stainless steel, aluminum, alloy steel, ordinary steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, hard plastics, etc. Flutes on the screw tap help to remove chips and debris from the hole.
