TECWERK Machine Tap DIN 371B M6×1 HSS‑Co TiN (6H)

The TECWERK Machine Tap DIN 371B M6×1 is a straight‑fluted, TiN‑coated HSS‑Co machine tap designed for producing ISO metric through‑threads in medium‑to‑high‑strength steels.

*HSS‑Co material for high wear resistance
*TiN coating for longer tool life
*Straight flute, flank‑relieved cutting geometry
*ISO2 (6H) tolerance for precise metric threads

Reliable thread quality through hardened materials and coating

The tap is manufactured from HSS‑Co, a cobalt‑alloy high‑speed steel that offers improved red‑hardness and wear resistance compared with standard tool steels. Combined with the TiN coating, the tool delivers reduced friction and consistently sharp cutting edges, which lowers the risk of premature wear and reduces rework. The specified ISO2 (6H) tolerance meets common industrial requirements for metric threads, ensuring reproducible fits and reliable assembly behaviour when used on components machined to metric standards.

Stable chip control and secure cutting geometry for through‑threads

The straight‑flute design with flank relief and a dedicated peel chamfer (Schälanschnitt) is engineered for through‑hole tapping. This geometry promotes predictable chip formation and evacuation, diminishing the likelihood of chip jamming and tap breakage during continuous production runs. The result is fewer interrupted cycles and a more efficient machining process — particularly valuable in batch work or automated tapping operations where downtime directly affects throughput.

Practical compatibility and workshop advantages

The tool conforms to DIN 371B Form B and is intended for machining steels up to 1000 N/mm² tensile strength, making it suitable for a wide range of engineering applications from maintenance tasks to component manufacture. A compact 6 mm shank ensures compatibility with common collets and holders, simplifying tool changes and reducing setup time. The combination of robust substrate and surface coating translates into longer service life, which supports predictable tool costs and smoother production planning.

FAQ

What materials can be machined with this tap?
The TECWERK machine tap is suitable for machining steels with tensile strengths up to 1000 N/mm² and is designed for standard engineering applications requiring metric threads.

Is this tap suitable for through‑hole tapping?
Yes — the tool’s peel chamfer and straight‑flute geometry are optimised for through‑threads, improving chip evacuation and reducing the risk of tap breakage.

Which standards and tolerances does the tap meet?
The tap conforms to DIN 371B Form B and produces metric threads to tolerance ISO2 (6H) for reliable fits in assembly operations.

How does the TiN coating benefit workshop processes?
The TiN coating reduces friction and increases surface hardness, extending tool life, improving wear resistance and lowering the frequency of tool changes in production.

Can the shank be used with standard holders?
The 6 mm shank diameter is compatible with common collets and tap holders, enabling straightforward integration into existing toolholding systems.
