Machine Tap DIN 371B AL M10x1.5mm HSS‑Co 6H – Straight‑flute metric tap by TECWERK, shank Ø 10 mm

The Machine Tap DIN 371B AL M10x1.5mm HSS‑Co 6H is a straight‑fluted cutting tool for producing ISO metric threads in through holes and similar applications, designed for long‑chip and softer materials.

• HSS‑Co for elevated hot hardness and wear resistance
• Straight flute for dependable chip evacuation
• Metric M10×1.5 thread to DIN 13, tolerance ISO2 (6H)
• Shank Ø 10 mm for secure machine clamping

Consistent precision for interchangeable metric threads

The combination of HSS‑Co material and the DIN conformity ensures both wear resistance and repeatable thread accuracy. The high‑cobalt steel provides improved hot hardness, which maintains cutting performance under elevated temperatures; this translates into longer tool life and steadier dimensional results. With the ISO2 (6H) tolerance and reference to DIN 13, the tool produces threads that meet established interchangeability standards. These technical qualities reduce scrap and rework in component production, supporting stable process economics and predictable assembly fits.

Reliable chip control and smoother machining cycles

Designed with a straight flute geometry and a peeling chamfer for through threads, the tap promotes controlled chip formation when machining long‑chip, soft materials. Straight flutes allow chips to exit axially, lowering the risk of chip clogging in blind or through holes and reducing torque spikes during threading. The relieved flanks reduce surface contact during threading, which improves cutting action and the finish of the thread flank. The net effect is fewer interruptions, shorter cycle times and a more reliable production flow when working with aluminium‑type and other ductile alloys.

Machine compatibility and secure clamping for operational stability

The tool adheres to the standardised DIN 371B form (Form B) and features a shank Ø 10 mm, enabling secure mounting in standard tap holders and automatic tapping spindles. This compatibility simplifies integration into existing setups, whether used on manual tapping heads or CNC tapping units. The standardised form factor supports rapid tool changes and consistent positioning, which helps maintain thread concentricity and surface quality across batches. Where repeatability and interchangeability matter, the standard dimensions and acceptance to DIN specifications are decisive advantages.

Practical handling and application recommendations

For best results, pair the tap with appropriate cutting fluid and machining parameters matched to the workpiece material; the HSS‑Co substrate tolerates elevated temperatures but benefits from lubrication to extend service life. The tool’s design — including the peeling chamfer for through threads — makes it especially suitable for continuous‑chip alloys; selecting chip breakers, coolant delivery and feed rates aligned to the workpiece will further reduce the risk of built‑up edge and improve thread quality. Regular inspection for wear and prompt replacement when flank wear affects tolerance will ensure ongoing thread conformity and minimise downstream quality issues.

FAQ

What materials is this tap best suited for?
The TECWERK machine tap M10×1.5, made from HSS‑Co, is intended primarily for long‑chip, softer materials such as aluminium alloys and similar ductile metals where straight flutes promote reliable chip evacuation.

What does the tolerance ISO2 (6H) mean for threaded parts?
Tolerance ISO2 (6H) specifies the thread tolerance class according to ISO standards; the TECWERK tap produces threads within that class, ensuring interchangeability and conformity for standard metric fastenings.

Can the tap be used in automatic tapping heads?
Yes, the shank Ø 10 mm and Form B profile are compatible with standard tap holders and many automatic tapping devices, allowing stable clamping and consistent thread concentricity.

How does the peeling chamfer affect threading performance?
The peeling chamfer on this tool is designed for through threads and promotes easier chip separation and initiation of the cut, which helps reduce torque peaks and improves surface finish in through‑hole applications.

Is any special coolant recommended for extending tool life?
While HSS‑Co offers good heat resistance, the use of an appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant matched to the workpiece material will help reduce wear and maintain consistent thread quality for the TECWERK tap.
