Take advantage of the combination of HSS‑Co material for sustained cutting performance and the 6H tolerance for an accurate fit, ensuring consistent thread quality in demanding workshops; order the tap directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our specialists for application advice.

Machine tap DIN 374B MF22×1.5 HSS‑Co 6H (TECWERK)

The machine tap MF22×1.5 HSS‑Co 6H by TECWERK is a DIN‑compliant tool for producing metric ISO fine threads in steels, temper cast iron and long‑chipping non‑ferrous metals.

• Cobalt HSS for elevated heat resistance
• Form B straight flutes for reliable chip evacuation
• Tolerance 6H for precise metric fine threads
• Shank Ø 18 mm for stable machine clamping

Accurate fine threads for repeatable assembly performance

Designed for fine metric threads, this machine tap delivers repeatable geometry thanks to its MF22×1.5 specification and 6H tolerance. The combination of a defined thread form and DIN conformity reduces rework and minimises assembly variation, which translates into measurable production savings. The use of HSS‑Co supports maintained cutting edges under thermal load, so the process remains stable during series production and interrupted cycles.

Robust construction that supports faster machining cycles

Manufactured in HSS‑Co and built to Form B with straight flutes, the tool balances toughness with predictable chip flow. The straight‑flute design promotes controlled chip evacuation in continuous machining of steels up to ca. 1000 N/mm², temper cast iron and long‑chipping non‑ferrous alloys. As a result, cycle times are optimised and the risk of tap breakage is reduced, providing clear operational benefits for production environments where uptime matters.

Precision features that simplify set‑up and tool handling

The tool is supplied with a shank Ø 18 mm, enabling secure clamping in standard toolholders and reducing run‑out during machining. The relieved/flank‑ground cutting edges and the dedicated cutting chamfer for through threads help to reduce thread burr and facilitate entry, which is particularly useful when working with tight‑tolerance components. These design choices lower scrap rates and make process validation simpler for quality control teams.

Application suitability and machining recommendations

This tap is intended for use in turning and machining centres or tapping heads where rigid support and appropriate spindle alignment are provided. It is particularly suitable for metric fine threads in medium‑strength steels and certain non‑ferrous materials; users should verify machine spindle concentricity and use appropriate coolant and tapping cycles to extend tool life. For operations that require a secure standard fit and consistent thread form, the TECWERK tap offers a pragmatic combination of material and geometry.

FAQ

What thread size and standard does this tap produce?
The TECWERK machine tap produces an MF22×1.5 metric ISO fine thread and conforms to DIN 374B and DIN 13 standards.

Which materials can be machined with this tap?
The tap is suitable for machining in steels up to approximately 1000 N/mm², temper cast iron and long‑chipping non‑ferrous metals when used with correct process parameters.

What does the 6H tolerance mean for assembled parts?
A 6H tolerance ensures a standard internal thread tolerance class for secure and repeatable fits in metric fine threaded assemblies produced with this tap.

How should the tool be clamped in the machine?
Use a rigid holder that accepts a shank Ø 18 mm to minimise run‑out; stable clamping improves thread quality and tool life when using the TECWERK tap.

Is this tap suitable for through threads only?
The tap features a cutting chamfer designed for through threads, but it can be used in suitable blind hole strategies when appropriate pecking or cycle adjustments are applied.
