EXACT M3x11 mm single‑cut tap HSSG with 1/4″ hex shank

The EXACT M3x11 mm single‑cut tap HSSG with 1/4″ hex shank is a compact tapping tool designed for producing M3 internal threads where space is limited and secure drive engagement is required

• HSSG solid ground high-speed steel
• Self‑centring 1/4″ hex shank
• Thread length 11 mm for M3 threads
• Overall length 33 mm for compact use

Precision cutting in a compact form for consistent threads

The ground HSSG substrate provides a hard, wear‑resistant cutting edge that maintains dimensional stability over repeated cycles. With a thread length of 11 mm, the tool forms a full M3 thread depth while limiting axial engagement to controllable lengths, which reduces torque spikes in small assemblies. The short overall length of 33 mm allows access in confined fixturing and minimises overhang, resulting in reduced run‑out and improved concentricity compared with longer taps. This combination supports efficient series production and predictable thread quality.

Secure drive and fast set‑up for workshop and machine use

A 6.3 mm (1/4″) hex shank ensures positive drive engagement with quick‑change chucks and standard bit holders; the self‑centring geometry promotes reliable alignment during hand‑held or machine operations. The compact drive interface shortens set‑up times and reduces the need for additional adaptors, improving throughput in assembly lines and maintenance tasks. The hex shank also enables the use of powered screwdrivers for controlled tapping in repetitive operations, supporting consistent cycle times and reduced operator fatigue.

Practical lead geometry and straightforward handling

The tool features a 4–5 chamfer lead that eases thread entry and reduces the likelihood of cross‑threading in pre‑drilled holes. The single‑cut design provides a clear chip formation path, simplifying chip evacuation and minimising clogging in shallow threaded holes. This makes the tap particularly suitable where reliable thread starts and clean chip removal are priorities. The hardened, ground cutting edges support repeatable performance and make the tool a sensible choice for technicians seeking a balance between durability and compact handling.

FAQ

What thread size does the tap produce?
The tap produces M3 internal threads with a thread length of 11 mm and a compact overall length of 33 mm.

Is the driving interface compatible with power bit holders?
Yes, the 6.3 mm (1/4″) hex shank is compatible with standard quick‑change bit holders and powered screwdriver chucks.

What material is the cutting part made from?
The cutting material is HSSG, a ground high‑speed steel grade designed for wear resistance and repeatable cutting performance.

How does the chamfer design affect thread starting?
The 4–5 chamfer lead eases thread entry, reduces cross‑threading risk and supports controlled chip formation during the initial engagement.
