2 x 56 UNC Tap and Die Set for Right Hand Machine Thread

Product description for Taps and Dies

Taps:

The taps feature a straight flute design and are made of 6542 high-speed steel, suitable for processing threads in various through holes or shallow blind holes. They can be used on materials such as copper, brass, A3 steel, aluminum, and cast iron. Generally, they are used with tapping machines, integrated bench drills, CNC lathes, machining centers, and can also be used for manual processing. It is important to control the speed of operation based on the hardness of the material being processed, with recommended feed rates as follows: hard steel (5-10m/min), cast iron (8-10m/min), and ordinary steel (6-15m/min).

Dies:

The dies are made of alloy tool steel, offering high hardness and wear resistance for repairing external threads. The conical locking hole ensures a strong and secure fit when using a wrench. It is recommended to add appropriate lubricating oil to the cutting edge when in use, and to reverse the die every 1/4~1/2 turn to facilitate chip discharge.
