Machine thread tap DIN 371C VA M10 x 1.5 HSS‑Co nitrided & vapour‑coated — TECWERK, Form C tap for blind holes

The Machine thread tap DIN 371C VA M10 x 1.5 is designed for metric internal threads in demanding materials and for machine tapping operations where precision and tool life are required

• HSS‑Co for high wear resistance
• Nitrided and vapour‑coated surface
• Optimised for blind-hole threads
• Shank Ø 10 mm for secure clamping

Precision and sustained performance in hard-to-machine steels

Constructed from HSS‑Co, this machine tap offers elevated hot hardness compared with conventional high‑speed steel, which translates into longer life when cutting steels with high tensile strength. The tap produces a M10 x 1.5 metric thread to DIN 371C and meets the internal fit class ISO2 (6H), ensuring repeatable, standard-compliant threads that mate reliably with standard bolts. For production environments this means fewer rejects, reduced post‑processing and predictable assembly behaviour.

Efficient chip control and safer blind-hole tapping

The integrated right‑hand spiral 40° flute geometry actively supports chip evacuation in blind‑hole applications, reducing the risk of chip packing and breakage. Combined with flank relief, the cutting edges run cooler and with less friction, which benefits surface finish and thread integrity. The design therefore lowers the probability of tap fracture and minimises downtime, offering a measurable improvement in process stability for batch and continuous tapping operations.

Corrosion-resistant surface treatment and robust clamping for consistent results

A nitrided and vapour‑coated surface reduces adhesion of workpiece material and increases abrasion resistance, extending service intervals and maintaining cutting behaviour over longer runs. The shank Ø 10 mm provides a rigid seat in standard toolholders and reduces runout, while the Form C / Type VA profile and the visual blue ring identify the variant suited for stainless, acid and heat‑resistant steels with tensile strengths > 850 N/mm². Together these attributes deliver reproducible thread quality and lower overall tooling costs.

FAQ

What materials is this tap suitable for? This TECWERK machine thread tap is specified for stainless, acid and heat‑resistant steels with tensile strength greater than 850 N/mm² and performs well where conventional taps wear rapidly.

Can the tap be used for blind holes only? The tap is optimised for blind‑hole threads; the spiral flute and geometry are designed to evacuate chips effectively in such applications, improving safety and reducing breakage.

Which tolerance and standard does the tap conform to? The tap produces metric threads to DIN 371C and the internal thread tolerance corresponds to ISO2 (6H), providing a standardised fit for typical fasteners.

What is the shank size and how should it be held? The shank diameter is 10 mm; use an appropriately matched machine holder or collet that secures a 10 mm shank for minimal runout and secure clamping.

Is the surface treatment corrosion resistant? The nitrided and vapour‑coated finish increases wear resistance and reduces material adhesion, which helps maintain cutting performance and resists corrosive influences during use.
