Machine tap DIN 376C AL M16×2 mm HSS‑Co 6H (TECWERK)

A high‑performance machine tap designed for forming precise metric threads in blind holes and optimised for long‑chipping, soft workpiece materials.

• HSS‑Co for improved wear resistance
• 45° right‑hand spiral for reliable chip flow
• For blind‑hole threads with ISO2 (6H) tolerance
• Shank Ø 12 mm for secure machine mounting

Precise material and tolerance performance for repeatable threads

Manufactured from HSS‑Co, this machine tap delivers improved wear resistance and consistent cutting performance across production runs. The tool cuts a M16×2 mm metric thread in accordance with DIN 13 and the ISO2 (6H) tolerance field, which helps to ensure interchangeability of threaded parts and reduces the need for secondary inspection. By combining a hard cobalt alloy with exacting geometry, the tap supports reliable cycle times and predictable tool life, contributing to efficient throughput on production machines.

Geometry engineered to evacuate chips in blind‑hole applications

The 45° right‑hand spiral and flank‑ground edges are designed to guide chips away from the cutting zone, a key advantage when producing blind holes where chip congestion can cause breakage. The Form C, Type AL configuration optimises the helix and relief geometry for long‑chipping, soft workpiece materials, reducing the risk of thread damage and tool failure. This focused geometry leads to fewer interruptions and a lower scrap rate in batch and single‑piece production alike.

Robust shank and compatibility for machine tapping

Equipped with a 12 mm shank, the tap is prepared for secure clamping in standard tool holders and collets used in machining centres and tapping heads. The solid construction supports stable alignment during engagement, which improves thread form and reduces the likelihood of tap deflection. For workshops seeking reproducible tapping results, the combination of a robust shank and precision ground thread flanks offers a practical balance of rigidity and cutting performance.

Application advantages and process reliability

Intended specifically for blind‑hole metric threads, this machine tap reduces rework through consistent thread form and dependable chip control. Its specification—HSS‑Co, Form C, Type AL—makes it particularly suited to production environments where the workpiece material tends to form long, continuous chips. Where process stability and repeatable quality matter most, the tool supports a smoother workflow and fewer stoppages, safeguarding overall productivity.
