Product Description
A spiral point tap is a cutting tool used to create threads in a hole, typically in metal or other hard materials. It is a type of machine tap that has a pointed end with helical flutes that spiral around the shank of the tap. These flutes help to guide the tap into the hole and remove chips as it cuts the threads.The spiral point tap is designed to push chips forward out of the hole as it cuts the threads, which reduces the likelihood of clogging or breaking the tap. The pointed end also helps to initiate the thread cutting process, and the flutes help to guide the tap through the hole smoothly and efficiently.
Spiral point taps are commonly used in high-volume production settings where speed and efficiency are important. They are also popular in applications where precise and consistent thread cutting is required, such as in the manufacturing of machinery, automotive parts, and aerospace components.
