Kennametal HSS-E-PM Machine Taps

High-Performance HSS-E-PM Taps

Primary Application

The High-Performance High-Speed Steel (HSS-E-PM) Taps are manufactured to both ANSI and DIN standards from powder metal, offering high productivity and reliable thread quality and are engineered for greater wear and heat resistance. HSS-E-PM tools can be used on conventional non-rigid and CNC-synchronous tapping machines for tapping through and blind holes in a variety of materials and is particularly efficient in tapping soft steel and aluminium.

The precision h6 shank enables usage in either conventional square drive tap holders or in precision round toolholders.
