Description:
Straight flute design, downward shavings removal Left Thread, Clear Screw, Precision Fast Tapping M35 cobalt high speed steel tools have high hardness (HRC65-66), high red hardness, high wear resistance, excellent toughness.
Suitable for through hole processing Used for drilling and tapping of stainless steel, aluminum, die steel, bronze, hard plastic, etc. Recommended feed speed: General steel: 6-15 m/min; Harder steel: 5-10 m/min; Stainless steel: 2-7 m/min; Cast iron: 8-10 m/min; The torque generated due to the feed speed is too fast, making the tap easier to break.
Titanium coating provides excellent corrosion resistance, greatly improves abrasion resistance and hardness, and reduces friction coefficient. When used with tapping oil, you get more screws and more durable taps.
Used in drilling and tapping machines, CNC and milling machines. Machine taps are recommended to be used with tap collets with overload protection. When used by hand, the force is uneven and the tap is prone to breaking.
Taps tend to chip or break due to speed overload or non-vertical tapping Use the correct tapping tool such as tap wrench, tapping machine. Micro taps (such as M1-M3.5) are primarily used for watches and watches to tap wood or soft metals with low hardness.
