M14x2mm Machine Tap DIN 376B HSS-Co Nitride Vaporised ISO2 (6H) Through Hole - TECWERK

Benefit from a HSS‑Co construction, combined with nitrided and vapour-coated surface treatment and a straight‑fluted DIN 376B design for reliable, repeatable metric threads in high‑strength stainless steels; order the tool via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our application specialists for tailored advice.

TECWERK machine tap DIN 376B M14 x 2 mm — HSS‑Co, nitrided and vapour‑coated

The TECWERK machine tap DIN 376B M14 x 2 mm is a precision cutting tool for producing ISO metric threads in high‑strength and corrosion‑resistant steels, designed for machine tapping of through‑holes.

• HSS-Co for high-strength materials
• Suitable for stainless and heat-resistant steels
• Straight flutes for reliable chip evacuation
• Tolerance ISO2 (6H) for precise thread fit

Durable coating and material for prolonged tool life

Made from HSS‑Co (cobalt‑alloy high‑speed steel) with a nitrided and vapour‑coated surface, this machine tap delivers improved wear resistance and higher hot hardness compared with standard HSS. The surface treatment reduces friction at the cutting edges, which prolongs tool life and helps maintain dimensional accuracy over longer production runs. The blue ring marking identifies the corrosion‑resistant version and simplifies tool selection in the workshop.

Accurate fit and consistent thread quality

The tool conforms to DIN 376B and is intended for ISO metric thread production to DIN 13, sheet 1, with a tolerance field ISO2 (6H) for secure, repeatable assemblies. A chamfer for through threads ensures smooth lead‑in and reduces cutting torque on entry, while the flank‑ground geometry improves contact conditions and reduces the risk of galling in stainless materials. These features translate into fewer rejected parts and less rework on the production line.

Engineered for demanding materials and applications

This tap is specified for use in corrosion-, acid- and heat‑resistant steels with tensile strengths above 850 N/mm², where standard taps may fail prematurely. The cobalt alloy base material maintains hardness at elevated temperatures, and the coating prevents adhesive wear when machining stainless and high‑alloy steels. In practical terms, the result is a reliable thread‑making solution for aerospace, chemical plant and specialty‑steel work where material strength and surface integrity are critical.

Practical handling and machine compatibility

With a shank Ø 11 mm and straight‑fluted geometry, the tool is suited to powered machine tapping and is especially effective for through‑hole operations that require controlled chip flow. The combination of a robust shank diameter and the specified form B, type VA construction helps ensure concentricity when used in collets or tool holders. For best results, use appropriate cutting fluid and moderate feed rates as recommended for high‑alloy stainless steels to optimise tool life and surface finish.

FAQ

What materials is this tap suitable for?
The TECWERK machine tap DIN 376B M14 x 2 mm is suitable for corrosion‑, acid‑ and heat‑resistant steels and other high‑strength alloys with tensile strength above 850 N/mm².

Is the tolerance suitable for assembly with standard nuts?
Yes, the tolerance field ISO2 (6H) specified for this tap provides a reliable fit for standard ISO metric internal threads produced to DIN 13, sheet 1.

How does the coating affect performance?
The nitrided and vapour‑coated surface reduces friction and adhesive wear during thread cutting, improving tool life and maintaining dimensional accuracy for the TECWERK tap.

Can the tool be used in machine tapping heads?
With a shank Ø 11 mm and a Form B, Type VA design, the tap is compatible with standard machining holders and powered tapping heads for through‑hole operations.

Does the tool require special coolant or lubricant?
For best results in high‑alloy and stainless steels, use a suitable cutting fluid or coolant recommended for such materials; Metav Werkzeuge can advise on optimal lubricants and operating parameters.
