THREDFLOERS
Advanced forming tap geometry. Chipless tapping, stronger threads, better thread gaging, stronger taps, longer tap life, more efficient production, and ideal for non-lead screw tappers.
THREDSHAVERS
Material-specific cutting taps, engineered to provide maximum tap life results.
CARBIDE INSERTED
The next generation of high performance taps. Made with carbide embedded thread sections to have the wear resistance of carbide while providing the core strength of HSS.
THREAD GAGES
Precision ground taperlock thread gages. Superior metallurgy, superior accuracy, extra length feature, and certificate of inspection.
TAPPING OIL
Increase productivity and improve thread quality with this petroleum-based fluid containing space age additives. This fluid will allow you to increase tapping speeds and reduce tap wear and breakage.
