Machine tap DIN 374B — MF 24×1.5 HSS‑Co 6H (TECWERK), Form B, straight flutes

The Machine tap MF 24×1.5 HSS‑Co is a Form B, straight‑fluted tool for producing metric fine threads to DIN 13 with tolerance 6H, suited to machine tapping in steels and long‑chipping non‑ferrous metals.

• HSS‑Co construction for high wear resistance
• Form B, straight flutes for stable cutting
• Metric fine thread MF 24×1.5, tolerance 6H
• 18 mm shank; chamfered entry for through threads

Precision threads that meet industrial tolerance requirements

The high‑alloy HSS‑Co composition provides enhanced hot‑hardness and wear life compared with standard high‑speed steels, which makes the tool appropriate for medium‑ to high‑strength materials. Built to the DIN 13 metric fine‑thread standard and finished to tolerance 6H, the tap guarantees repeatable thread form and fit in serial production. This level of specification reduces scrap and rework by maintaining consistent engagement with mating components, which supports reliable assembly processes on automated machines where interchangeability is essential.

Controlled chip flow and reduced breakage for machine applications

Form B geometry with straight flutes and relieved flanks optimises chip formation and evacuation during through‑hole tapping. The tool’s chamfered entry (peel chamfer) is designed for through threads, allowing the cutting edges to engage progressively and minimise axial loads at start‑up. As a result, the risk of tap breakage is reduced and surface finish of the internal thread is improved, lowering post‑process deburring and inspection time and maintaining uptime on production lines.

Material compatibility and application advantages

This tapping tool is specified for use in steels up to approximately 1000 N/mm² tensile strength, temper‑cast iron and long‑chipping non‑ferrous metals, offering versatility across typical workshop and light industrial applications. The cobalt‑enriched alloy retains hardness at elevated cutting temperatures, which prolongs tool life under cyclic loading and frequent machine starts. For production planners, this translates into predictable tool change intervals and fewer unscheduled stoppages, improving overall process efficiency.

Machine integration and handling benefits

An 18 mm shank diameter provides secure clamping in standard toolholders and spindles, while the tap’s machine‑grade shank allows rapid changeover in automated setups. Conformance to recognised standards and robust shank dimensions simplifies storage, tool management and tool life forecasting in a centralised procurement strategy. The combined effect is a dependable threading solution that aligns with systematic production practices and reduces downstream variances in assembled parts.

FAQ

What thread size and pitch does this tap produce?
The tool cuts a metric fine thread MF 24×1.5 in accordance with DIN 13, using a tolerance class of 6H.

Which materials are suitable for machining with this tap?
The TECWERK machine tap is intended for steels up to approximately 1000 N/mm², temper cast iron and long‑chipping non‑ferrous metals.

How does Form B geometry affect performance?
Form B with straight flutes and relieved flanks improves chip control and stability during machine tapping, reducing the likelihood of tap breakage and improving thread quality.

Is the shank suitable for standard machine holders?
Yes, the 18 mm shank is designed for secure clamping in common machine toolholders and supports rapid changeovers in production environments.

What feature assists in starting through‑hole threads?
The tap’s peel chamfer gives a progressive entry for through threads, decreasing axial shock at engagement and promoting consistent cutting performance.
