Hand tap set DIN 352 M16 x2 HSS ISO2 (6H) – TECWERK

Hand tap set DIN 352 M16 x2 HSS ISO2 (6H) TECWERK is a precision metric tap set intended for producing M16 × 2 threads in through and blind holes, optimised for steels with tensile strength up to approximately 900 N/mm²

• HSS cutting material, robust performance
• Metric ISO thread M16 x 2 mm
• ISO2 (6H) tolerance for precision fit
• For through and blind hole threads

Precision threads for demanding assemblies

The three-piece metric tap set is configured as taper, intermediate and bottoming taps to distribute the cutting load across three operations, reducing breakage risk and ensuring a clean thread profile. Constructed from High-Speed Steel (HSS) and conforming to DIN 352, the set is suitable for standardised metric internal threads M16 x 2 mm and manufactured to ISO2 (6H) tolerance for a consistent fit. A 12 mm shank and right-hand cut make these taps compatible with common tapping holders and manual tools, while the geometry supports both through-hole and blind-hole applications in steels up to ~900 N/mm², providing predictable results in serial production and repair tasks.

Faster, safer tapping in everyday workflows

Using a sequential taper → intermediate → bottoming procedure simplifies chip evacuation and reduces hand fatigue, which translates into fewer tap failures and less rework in shop-floor environments. The set’s cutting geometry and material choice allow elevated cutting speeds compared with carbon steel taps, while retaining toughness at the core. For complex jobs or material mixes, clarification on application parameters is available from Metav Werkzeuge; technical advice helps to match coolant use, spindle torque and tapping speed to the workpiece and machine, supporting reliable cycle times and lower scrap rates.

Durable design and standardised interchangeability

The taps’ HSS composition offers a balance of wear resistance and toughness appropriate for general engineering steels. The ISO2 (6H) tolerance designation means threads produced will meet widely accepted assembly standards, facilitating interchangeability with mating parts produced to the same class. Compliance with DIN 352 and reference to DIN 13, sheet 1 for metric threads underlines the set’s suitability for professional use. Stored and used correctly—sharp, clean threads and appropriate lubrication—the set will maintain cutting performance over many cycles, supporting a steady production rhythm and long service life.

FAQ

What materials can be tapped with this set?
The TECWERK hand tap set is suitable for steels with tensile strength up to approximately 900 N/mm²; the HSS composition provides the necessary wear resistance and toughness for typical engineering steels.

Is the set suitable for blind holes?
Yes, the set is designed for both through and blind-hole threads; using the taper and intermediate taps first improves chip control before the bottoming tap completes the thread.

What does ISO2 (6H) mean for the thread fit?
ISO2 (6H) is a tolerance class indicating a standard internal thread fit; threads produced with this classification will meet common assembly tolerances for interchangeability.

Which standards does the tap set comply with?
The taps reference DIN 352 for tap geometry and are intended for metric threads according to DIN 13, sheet 1, ensuring compatibility with standard metric components.

What is included in the 3-piece set?
The set comprises a taper (starter) tap, an intermediate (second) tap and a bottoming (finishing) tap to complete the thread with controlled chip removal and dimensional accuracy.
