Machine tap DIN 376B M22×2.5 HSS‑Co 6H — Form B, straight flutes for machine tapping by TECWERK

The Machine tap DIN 376B M22×2.5 HSS‑Co 6H is a metric production tap designed for creating precise through threads in medium‑to‑high strength steels on automated tapping equipment.

• HSS‑Co for high wear resistance
• Form B, straight flutes for machine use
• ISO2 (6H) tolerance for precise metric threads
• Shank Ø 18 mm for secure clamping

Precision thread quality for repeatable assemblies

The combination of ISO2 (6H) tolerance and the DIN 13 Sheet 1 metric form ensures that threads meet industry expectations for interchangeability and fit. This results in predictable assembly behaviour and reduced rework rates when producing fastener seats or threaded components in series production. For purchasers and process engineers, the advantage is a lower scrap rate and easier downstream quality control thanks to consistent thread geometry.

Material and geometry that extend tool life and cycle time

Manufactured from HSS‑Co, the tap offers increased red hardness and wear resistance compared with conventional high‑speed steels, which benefits runs where heat and abrasion are significant. The straight flutes promote axial chip flow in through‑hole tapping, while flank relief by grinding reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish. Together these characteristics contribute to longer service life, fewer tool changes and more predictable machining cycles on CNC tapping heads.

Secure clamping and reliable process integration

With a shank Ø 18 mm, the tool is compatible with common machine tool collets and toolholders, providing stable torque transmission and minimising run‑out. The Form B specification and the included cutting chamfer for through threads make the tap suitable for automated high‑volume tapping where cycle stability and chip evacuation matter. Specification and geometry choices make it straightforward to integrate the tap into standard production recipes, supporting efficient changeovers and reproducible results.

FAQ

What materials is this tap suitable for?
The TECWERK machine tap is designed primarily for steels and is specified for use in materials up to about 900 N/mm² tensile strength, making it suitable for common structural and engineering steels.

Which tolerance and thread standard does the tool produce?
Threads produced conform to ISO2 (6H) tolerance and follow DIN 13 Sheet 1, ensuring compatibility with standard metric fasteners and predictable fit in assemblies.

Is this tap intended for through holes or blind holes?
This tool features a cutting chamfer specifically for through threads, optimising chip evacuation and reducing the risk of chip‑packing in through‑hole tapping operations.

How should the tap be clamped in production machines?
The 18 mm shank provides secure retention in standard collets and toolholders; the straight‑flute Form B geometry suits machine tapping heads and reduces torque peaks during engagement.

Can the tool be used on automated CNC tapping cycles?
Yes, the combination of HSS‑Co, straight flutes and ISO2 tolerance makes the TECWERK machine tap well adapted to automated tapping cycles where consistent thread quality and tool life are required.
