IRWIN HANSON part description

General Description

Taper- 10- 32 NF Tap

Features and Benefits

  • Hanson's high strength taps are useful for any number of machining projects, threading the interior surface of a hole to correspond with the desired thread pitch of a given screw, bolt or other part.
  • This taper tap (also known as a starter tap) utilizes a pronounced chamfer that is 7 to 10 threads in length, creating a gradual cutting action that requires less torque than a plug tap due to the increased number of cutting teeth.
  • Ideal for use when the material to be tapped is difficult to work, such as alloy steel, or when using more fragile, small diameter taps.
  • Featuring a square drive head, the tap can be paired with a Hanson T-handle tap wrench (sold separately) for manual operation, or attached to a lathe or drill press for greater precision and speed.
