Application

This adjustable tap wrench according to DIN 1814 in steel version for 4 is used to hold square tap shanks during manual internal thread cutting, re tapping, or thread cleaning. Select the wrench by the shank range and the space available around the workpiece.

The adjustable clamping design helps you set the tap straight before applying torque by hand. Check that the jaws grip the square shank evenly and that the selected wrench size does not overload a small tap or restrict movement in a tight assembly.

Application

  • holding square tap shanks for manual internal thread cutting or re tapping
  • adjusting the jaw opening to the stated shank range before torque is applied
  • controlled hand operation in repair, maintenance, assembly, and tool room work
  • thread cleaning only when the tap and the existing thread match exactly

Note Clamp the square shank evenly and select a wrench size that matches the tap size and working space.

Benefits

  • DIN 1814 reference supports selection by established holder dimensions
  • steel version construction is stated in the product data and supports workshop handling
  • stated working range 5.5-16 mm gives a factual basis for size matching
  • adjustable jaws allow the tap shank to be clamped before manual torque is applied
Drawbacks
  • The accessory works only when the tool dimensions match; choose a different holder size in the Threading tools category if the fit is not correct.

Step by step

  1. Compare the tap shank size with the stated wrench range.
  2. Open the adjustable jaws before inserting the square shank.
  3. Seat the tap shank centrally between the jaws.
  4. Tighten the wrench so both jaws grip the square shank evenly.
  5. Align the tap with the hole axis before turning by hand.
  6. Release the jaws after use and remove chips or oil from the clamping area.
