Hand tap DIN 352 No.3 M5x0.8 mm HSS ISO2 (6H) — manual metric tap with 6 mm shank, right-hand cutting (TECWERK)

The Hand tap DIN 352 No.3 M5x0.8 mm HSS ISO2 (6H) is a precision manual tapping tool designed for producing metric M5 threads in medium-strength steels; suitable for workshop repairs and small-batch production where controlled manual tapping is required

• HSS cutting material for durability
• Metric ISO M5x0.8 thread to DIN 13
• ISO2 (6H) tolerance for accurate fits
• 6 mm shank, right-hand cutting

Consistent thread quality for accurate assembly

The tap is manufactured to DIN 352 and paired with the DIN 13 specification for metric threads, which ensures a predictable thread geometry and fit. With its ISO2 (6H) tolerance, the tool provides a reliably tight tolerance suitable for standard engineering assemblies; this reduces the need for rework and supports reproducible connections. The combination of standard conformity and measured tolerancing is especially valuable where interchangeability and assembly integrity are critical.

Optimised for steel and manual shop work

Made from HSS and specified for steels up to approximately 900 N/mm², the tool is aimed at conventional workshop materials rather than exotic alloys. The high-speed steel composition offers a balance of toughness and wear resistance for manual operations, and the right-hand cutting geometry matches conventional tapping practice. For operators less familiar with technical terms: HSS stands for high-speed steel, a material chosen because it withstands heat and preserves cutting edges under the friction typical of hand tapping.

Practical design to simplify use and handling

A 6 mm shank design facilitates secure clamping in standard tap wrenches and holders, keeping the tool centred and stable during insertion and withdrawal. The designation No.3 under DIN 352 indicates flute geometry and usable length appropriate for general-purpose hand taps, offering a compromise between chip evacuation and cutting engagement. Where manual control is required, this geometry supports safer, more controlled tapping and reduces the likelihood of breakage in routine workshop tasks.

FAQ

What materials is this hand tap suitable for? The TECWERK hand tap is specified for use in steels up to approximately 900 N/mm² and is manufactured from HSS to suit standard workshop steel applications.

What thread form and size does the tool produce? The tool produces a metric thread of M5x0.8 mm to DIN 13, manufactured to the ISO2 (6H) tolerance class for standard-fit assemblies.

How is the tap held during manual tapping? The tap has a 6 mm shank designed for secure clamping in common tap wrenches and manual holders, providing stable control during hand tapping operations.

Which standards does the tap comply with? This hand tap is made to DIN 352 and references DIN 13 Blatt 1 for the metric thread form and dimensions, ensuring conformity with common industrial specifications.

Is this tap suitable for power tapping or only manual use? The designation and flute geometry correspond to a hand tap as per DIN 352; it is optimised for manual use rather than high-speed machine tapping.
