Hand tap DIN 2181 – finishing tap No.2, M22 x 1.5 mm HSS ISO2 (6H) by TECWERK

The Hand tap DIN 2181 finishing tap No.2 M22 x 1.5 mm HSS ISO2 (6H) TECWERK is a manual finishing tap designed for producing metric fine threads to ISO tolerance in steel components

• HSS cutting material for durability
• ISO2 (6H) tolerance for precise threads
• Suitable for through and blind holes
• For steels up to 900 N/mm² strength

Accurate thread form for secure assemblies

The finishing tap provides a precise M22 x 1.5 metric fine thread produced to ISO2 (6H) tolerance, which translates into reliable thread fit and repeatable assembly behaviour. This level of accuracy reduces play between mating parts and improves fatigue life where threaded connections are subject to dynamic loads. For engineers and skilled workshop operators, the defined tolerance class simplifies quality control and compatibility with standard ISO fasteners.

Durable cutting performance for prolonged use

Made from high-speed steel, the tool delivers consistent cutting action across multiple operations. The HSS cutting material offers a balance of hardness and toughness that resists wear while maintaining a sharp cutting edge, especially when tapping medium-strength steels. A solid 18 mm shank provides secure clamping in manual tap handles and reduces the risk of wobble, improving hole alignment and surface finish during tapping operations.

Practical handling for through and blind holes

Designed as a finishing/plug tap (No.2) in accordance with DIN 2181, this hand tap is suitable for both through and blind hole applications, enabling clean thread bottoms and reliable engagement. The right-hand cutting direction and the specified geometry support controlled chip formation when tapping steels up to around 900 N/mm² tensile strength. For manual production or maintenance tasks, the tool’s geometry facilitates safer, more predictable tapping cycles and helps avoid thread damage from poor chip evacuation.

Streamlined procurement and workshop assurance

Selecting a standardised finishing tap from a recognised supplier reduces procurement complexity and supports consistent output across teams. Metav Werkzeuge acts as a reliable distribution partner with wide availability and technical know-how, helping workshops stock tools that meet industrial specifications. Choosing this finishing tap contributes to steady production flows, fewer reworks and clear traceability in workshop documentation.
