Full Range HSS-E M35 Machine Taps | Metric M2-M52 & ANSI #4-1.5" | Precision TPI & Pitch Specifications

1. Introduction: Precision Threading from Micro to Macro

Our HSS-E M35 (5% Cobalt) Machine Taps are engineered for global compatibility. Whether you are working on micro-electronics or heavy infrastructure, our range covers every standard pitch and TPI (Threads Per Inch).

Every tap is CNC Fully Ground to ensure the highest thread profile accuracy, catering to Class 2B/3B (Imperial) and 6H (Metric) tolerance requirements.

2. Comprehensive Metric Series (M2 - M52)

Standard DIN 371 (Reinforced Shank) / DIN 376 (Reduced Shank)

3. Comprehensive Imperial Series (#4 - 1-1/2")

Standard ANSI B94.11 - Unified Coarse (UNC) & Unified Fine (UNF)

4. Geometry & Application Insights

• Spiral Point (Gun Taps): Pushes chips forward. Best for through-holes.

• Spiral Flute (35°-45° Helix): Pulls chips out of the hole. Best for blind holes.

• Straight Flute: General purpose. Best for short-chip materials like cast iron.

5. Surface & Material Selection

• HSSE-M35 (5% Cobalt): Essential for heat resistance when tapping Stainless Steel (304/316) and high-tensile alloys.

• TiCN Coating (Dark Grey): Provides extreme surface hardness (3000 HV) and low friction, perfect for abrasive or hardened materials.

• Steam Oxide (Black): Retains cutting oil on the tap surface, preventing chip welding in soft steels.

6. Professional FAQ

Q: What is the difference between Metric Coarse and Metric Fine?

A: Coarse threads (e.g., M10x1.5) are standard for most assemblies. Fine threads (e.g., M10x1.0) have a shallower thread depth and provide better vibration resistance and adjustment precision.

Q: Do you offer custom TPI or Pitch for special projects?

A: Yes. As a factory, we can manufacture non-standard pitches (e.g., M14x1.0 or special UNS threads) upon request with low minimum order quantities.
