6mm Thread Forming Tap M6 Form C HSS-Co TiN-Coated 6HX For Through And Blind Holes - TECWERK

Take advantage of the combination of HSS‑Co construction, TiN coating and Form C geometry for robust, low‑wear, chip‑free M6 threads in both through and blind holes; order the thread forming tap directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult the Metav specialists if clarification is required.

TECWERK thread forming tap DIN 2174 (DIN 371) M6 – Form C, HSS‑Co, TiN

The TECWERK thread forming tap DIN 2174 (DIN 371) M6 is a Form C metric ISO thread former designed for producing consistent, high‑quality M6 threads in ductile metals and steels for industrial assembly work.

• HSS‑Co for high wear resistance
• TiN coating for extended tool life
• Form C geometry for cold forming threads
• 6HX tolerance for ISO metric M6 threads

Faster, chip‑free threads that improve assembly reliability

This thread former is engineered for cold forming rather than cutting, producing threads without chips and reducing the need for secondary cleaning processes. The solid cobalt HSS‑Co substrate combined with a TiN surface treatment enhances hardness and wear resistance, which maintains dimensional stability over repeated cycles. The tool’s straight flutes and flank relief contribute to controlled material flow during forming, so assemblies benefit from consistent thread profiles and reliable joint performance while production throughput is kept steady.

Durability and process stability that cut downtime

Built with longevity in mind, the combination of HSS‑Co and TiN lowers tool change frequency and supports predictable maintenance intervals. The Form C design and the 6HX tolerance are specified for metric ISO threads, helping to ensure repeatable fit in mating components. For production planners, this translates into fewer interruptions and a reduced need for replacement stock, supporting cost‑efficient workflows and stable output in batch and continuous operations.

Clear application range and concise dimensions for straightforward selection

The tool is intended for use in non‑ferrous metals and steels with ≥10% elongation, suitable for both through and blind holes where forming is preferred. Key dimensions include thread size M6, thread length 19 mm and shank diameter 6 mm, which align with common fastening requirements in mechanical assemblies. The straight‑grooved profile and flank relief assist in consistent material displacement.
