Machine Tap DIN 371B M5 x 0.8 HSS-Co TiN (6H) — Straight-flute Form B (TECWERK)

A Machine Tap DIN 371B M5 x 0.8 HSS-Co TiN (6H) engineered for reliable through-threading in medium-strength steels, suitable for production and repair environments.

• HSS-Co substrate for increased wear resistance
• TiN coating for longer tool life
• Straight-flute Form B for reliable chip evacuation
• ISO metric thread, tolerance field 6H
• Suitable for steels up to 1000 N/mm²

Consistent performance for demanding steel workpieces

The TECWERK M5 machine tap is manufactured from a HSS-Co substrate to deliver enhanced resistance to wear under continuous use, making it suitable for machining medium-strength steels with tensile strengths up to 1000 N/mm². The cobalt-alloy base increases red-hardness and edge stability, which reduces frequency of tool changes and supports steady production cycles. This combination of material and geometry translates into fewer rejects and predictable component quality in batch operations.

Precision thread form for interchangeability and assembly fit

Produced to DIN 371B and complying with metric ISO thread standards, the tool provides the ISO2 (6H) tolerance class for consistent internal threads. The Form B profile ensures correct flank geometry, so assembled parts meet tight clearance and fit specifications. Consistent tolerance and repeatability reduce inspection effort and simplify mating with standard bolts and fasteners, supporting quality assurance processes in manufacturing and maintenance.

Efficient chip control for through-hole tapping

The straight-flute configuration, designated Form B, together with the peel chamfer for through threads, promotes predictable chip flow and reduces the risk of chip congestion in long holes. This reliable evacuation reduces the incidence of thread damage and minimises cycle interruptions. For production environments where throughput and uptime matter, the threading tool’s geometry supports smoother machining and fewer secondary operations.

Coating and finishing that extend service life and handling

A TiN coating provides a hard, low-friction surface that enhances wear resistance and aids chip release, while the flanks honed finishing reduces burr formation during cutting. The tap’s 6 mm shank allows secure clamping in standard holders and quick tool changes on automated or manual tapping heads. These features collectively lower lifecycle costs and improve operator confidence during extended runs.
