HSS-EV 'Blue Ring' Spiral Point/Gun Nose ISO Oxidised Taps (Metric)

Machine Tap, M4 x 0.7mm, Metric Coarse, Spiral Point, Vanadium High Speed Steel, Steam Tempered, Blue

The unique general-purpose properties of Swiss+Tech® Black Ring Tap guarantees high productivity by reducing the amount of time spent changing taps for different materials and at the same time reduces the number of taps required by the machine shop. Swiss+Tech® Black Ring machine taps with their wide range of applications are the result of years of experience in metal cutting to the demands from customers:
For increased versatility.
Reducing the confusing type variety.
Reducing the storage costs for the tools. 
Reducing the tool changing times, for general tapping applications. 

Manufactured to DIN 371/376

For all technical specifications please refer to our catalogue.

The tool geometry (with up to 138 parameters) has been developed and optimised during long-term tests in co operation with users for the different sections of structural steel, aluminum casting, machining steel, VA steels, heat-resistant steels and tool steels. Selected hard coatings increase the range of applications. The objective of developing Swiss+Tech's 'Black Ring' Taps was the realisation of narrower tolerances and more efficient cutting times 
for the thread production.

The unique general purpose properties of these taps guarantee high productivity by reducing the amount of time spent changing taps for different materials and at the same time reduces the number of taps required by the machine shop. 

Swiss+Tech 'Black Ring' machine taps with their wide range of applications are the result of years of experience in metal cutting.
