Hand tap DIN 352 No.1 M16×2 HSS ISO2 (6H) – TECWERK

Hand tap DIN 352 No.1 M16×2 HSS ISO2 (6H) is a right‑hand tool for cutting precision M16×2 metric ISO threads, designed for manual tapping tasks in metalworking and maintenance applications.

• High‑speed steel (HSS) construction
• Complies with DIN 352 standard
• Metric ISO M16×2 thread ISO2 (6H)
• Suited for steels up to approx. 900 N/mm²
• Shank diameter 12 mm

Precision threading that reduces rework and scrap

The ISO2 (6H) tolerance combined with the DIN 352 specification delivers a consistent fit and predictable assembly behaviour, which reduces the need for rework in serial production or maintenance jobs. Manufactured from HSS, the tool keeps a sharp cutting edge under repeated use and maintains dimensional accuracy when producing M16×2 threads in materials within its specified strength range. This performance orientation supports efficient workflow and reliable component interchangeability.

Robust design for everyday workshop use

A 12 mm shank offers stable clamping in standard tap wrenches and holders, while the right‑hand cutting geometry ensures conventional thread direction for most assemblies. The high‑speed steel composition provides a balance between toughness and wear resistance, making the tap suitable for regular manual operations. The combination of these features means fewer tool changes and less downtime, contributing to measurable productivity gains in small workshops and industrial settings alike.

Practical handling and maintenance benefits

As a hand tap intended for manual use, the tool excels where controlled, precise tapping is required rather than high‑speed production tapping. The HSS cutting material tolerates intermittent work and can be used with appropriate cutting fluid to improve chip evacuation and surface finish. Clear standard conformity and the defined tolerance class make tool selection straightforward for purchasing and quality assurance processes, simplifying inventory and ensuring compatibility with ISO‑specified fasteners.

FAQ

What materials is this hand tap suitable for?
This hand tap is specified for use in steels up to approximately 900 N/mm² tensile strength and performs reliably when used within that material range.

Which thread and tolerance does the tap produce?
The tool cuts an M16×2 metric ISO thread with tolerance class ISO2 (6H) in accordance with the DIN 13 and DIN 352 specifications.

What is the shank size and why does it matter?
The shank diameter is 12 mm, which provides stable clamping in standard tap wrenches and holders to ensure straight, controlled hand tapping.

Is this tap suitable for production or only for manual tasks?
Designed as a hand tap, it is optimised for manual tapping and maintenance tasks; its HSS construction supports regular use but it is not intended as a direct substitute for specialised production machine taps.

How does conformity to DIN 352 benefit quality assurance?
Compliance with DIN 352 and the clearly defined ISO2 (6H) tolerance makes specification, inspection and procurement straightforward and reduces uncertainty in quality control processes.
