Benefit from high cutting performance thanks to the HSS‑Co substrate and a wear‑resistant TiN coating, combined with a universal Form B geometry that supports reliable through‑threading in mixed production runs. The tap’s 6H tolerance and DIN conformity deliver repeatable accuracy; order the machine tap directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed.

TECWERK machine tap DIN 376B – Universal M16×2 mm, HSS‑Co, TiN, 6H

The TECWERK machine tap DIN 376B Universal M16×2 mm HSS‑Co TiN 6H is a robust industrial tap designed for metric ISO threads in demanding workshop and production applications

• Universal Form B for versatile applications
• TiN coating for extended tool life
• Straight flutes with flank‑ground cutting edges
• Suitable for steel, stainless and non‑ferrous metals

Consistent thread quality for production environments

The combination of HSS‑Co substrate and a defined tolerance 6H ensures consistent thread accuracy across serial production. Compliance with DIN 13 Blatt 1 and the metric ISO thread standard for M16×2 mm means threads are comparable across parts and suppliers, reducing assembly issues. Where tight tolerance and interchangeability matter, this specification provides a verifiable basis for planning and inspection. The reliability achieved through standardisation supports lower scrap rates and predictable assembly behaviour.

Extended tool life that reduces running costs

A TiN coating reduces flank wear and improves surface hardness, which extends the service interval of the tap and lowers life‑cycle costs. The Form B universal geometry and straight flute design promote stable chip formation when cutting through holes; the incorporated chamfer is optimised for through‑threading. With a shaft Ø 12 mm, the tool integrates easily with standard holders, limiting changeover time in automated or manual tapping stations and contributing to more efficient tool management.

Stable performance across a wide material range

Designed for flexible use, the tool is suitable for steel, stainless steel, spheroidal graphite cast iron and non‑ferrous metals, offering confidence when mixes of materials are processed in the same batch. The combination of flank‑ground cutting edges and straight flutes assists chip control and minimises the risk of chip packing, particularly in blind and through‑hole operations. This stability supports consistent cycle times and helps maintain surface quality on mating components.

Simplified inventory and predictable integration

Adopting a universal tap that follows established standards reduces the number of tool variants required on the shop floor. The DIN conformity and clear metric specification make documentation, tool selection and replacement straightforward; the universal geometry reduces the need for specialised substitutes. Where process traceability and supplier transparency are required, the standardised tool designation supports audits and quality procedures while easing procurement.
