TECWERK Machine Tap DIN 376B M12×1.75 — HSS‑Co PM, HARDLUBE‑coated, 2×D, straight‑fluted

The Machine Tap DIN 376B M12×1.75 is a universal straight‑fluted tap designed for reliable through‑threading in steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper alloys and castings

• HSS‑Co PM for extended tool life
• HARDLUBE coating reduces friction
• Straight‑fluted, Form B universal type
• M12×1.75, tolerance 6HX for precise fits

Durable construction for longer production runs

Produced from HSS‑Co PM (powder‑metallurgical cobalt high‑speed steel), this threading tool offers a balance of toughness and wear resistance that keeps production running with fewer tool changes. The HARDLUBE coating lowers friction and reduces built‑up edge on the cutting lips, which translates into more consistent thread form and improved component surface finish. For workshop managers, the result is reduced downtime and a steadier output from tapping operations using this specification.

Precision geometry that delivers consistent ISO threads

The tap conforms to DIN 376B and produces an ISO metric thread M12×1.75 to tolerance class 6HX, meeting the requirements set out in DIN 13 Sheet 1. The tool’s Form B profile and 2×D length (two times the nominal diameter) limit deflection during tapping, while the shank Ø 9 mm and DIN 376 shank length ensure compatibility with standard holders and tapping heads. These attributes support reliable dimensional accuracy and repeatable fits in assemblies where thread quality is critical.

Versatile performance across common engineering materials

Equipped with a peel chamfer for through threads and an optimised cutting geometry, the tap handles chip formation effectively when machining a range of materials — steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper alloys and castings. The straight‑fluted design facilitates chip evacuation in through holes and lowers the risk of chip jamming. Using a single universal tool for multiple materials reduces inventory complexity and shortens changeover times on the shop floor.

Practical handling and compatibility for workshop use

The tool’s right‑hand cutting direction and robust construction make it suitable for machining centres, tapping heads and manual machines where standard thread production is required. The combination of a compact 2×D flute length and reinforced edge rounding improves stability in interrupted cuts and marginally machined surfaces. Supplied as a single‑unit packaging, this tap is intended for immediate integration into existing tooling setups and can be sourced reliably through Metav Werkzeuge.

FAQ

Which materials can this tap be used on?
The TECWERK machine tap M12×1.75 is specified for universal use in steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper alloys and castings, making it suitable for mixed‑material workshops.

What benefits does the HARDLUBE coating provide?
The HARDLUBE coating on the tap reduces friction and helps prevent built‑up edge, which improves finish and extends the service life of the HSS‑Co PM cutting edges.

What does 2×D and Form B mean in practice?
A 2×D length indicates the flute length is twice the nominal diameter, giving a compact, stable tool for through threads; Form B refers to the straight‑fluted geometry suited to general‑purpose through‑threading.

Is the thread accuracy suitable for assembly work?
Yes — the tool produces an ISO metric thread M12×1.75 to tolerance class 6HX, in line with DIN 13 Sheet 1, which is appropriate for precision assembly applications.

What is the article number for ordering or reference?
The article number for this TECWERK machine tap is 2000867983NW, useful for procurement and inventory records.
