Spiral Point Taps
We are a worldwide Supplier of Spiral Point Taps, also known as 'Gun Nose' or 'Bull Nose.' These taps are dimensionally the same as a hand tap, second lead, but have the cutting face ground back relative to the tap's axis for the lead portion. This gives the flute a better cutting action and requires less power. These Taps are ideal for machine tapping through holes or blind holes, where there is enough clearance beyond the threaded portion. Cutting Torque is of all cutting Taps. Numerous performance-enhancing coatings are available for Spiral Point Taps.
It's the strongest chip-cutting tap and is mainly used in through-holes only. Spiral Fluted Tap pulls the chips out of the hole toward the tap shank and opposite the tapping direction. High-performance taps are harder and more wear-resistance than general-purpose taps and provide better precision and accuracy than general-purpose taps.
