VÖLKEL GREEN RING Machine Tap Set: Reliability for Demanding Materials

When you need to cut threads in materials with higher tensile strength, you need a tool specifically designed for the job. The VÖLKEL GREEN RING Machine Tap Set is the top choice for professionals who need to rely on their tools. This 7-piece set is optimized for universal use in steels up to 1000 N/mm² and delivers flawless results even under higher loads. VÖLKEL's GREEN RING quality stands for outstanding performance and durability.

What Makes the VÖLKEL GREEN RING So Special?

The name "GREEN RING" is part of VÖLKEL's color-coded system, which tells you at a glance the optimal application for a tool. The green ring signals that these taps represent a performance class that goes beyond the standard.

Maximum Performance up to 1000 N/mm² The key advantage of this set is its ability to reliably process materials with a tensile strength of up to 1000 N/mm². While standard taps often reach their limits, the GREEN RING tap offers high fracture strength and cutting performance in this demanding material group, thanks to its special HSS-E alloy and optimized geometry.

Precision Through HSS-E Steel and Form B The foundation of the GREEN RING set is the proven HSS-E material. This steel with a cobalt content is extremely wear-resistant and heat-resistant. The spiral point (Form B) is ideal for through holes. It ensures that the chips created during the cutting process are pushed forward. This prevents clogging and reduces the risk of breakage, ensuring you always get clean threads.

  • Structural steels

The VÖLKEL quality from Remscheid guarantees you a tool that meets the highest standards and supports you in every project.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between the GREEN RING and standard HSS-E taps from VÖLKEL?

The main difference lies in the optimized geometry and material composition, which qualifies the GREEN RING tap for materials with higher tensile strength (up to 1000 N/mm²). Standard HSS-E taps are typically designed for materials up to 900 N/mm².

What does the "Green Ring" stand for?

The "Green Ring" is an internal VÖLKEL marking. It designates a product line that is specifically designed for machining steels with a tensile strength of up to 1000 N/mm². It thus represents an increased performance capability in this application area.

Is the GREEN RING set also suitable for blind holes?

No, the tap with a spiral point (Form B) is optimal for through holes. For blind holes, where the chips must be transported upwards and out of the hole, we recommend taps with a spiral flute (Form C).

Can I also use the taps manually?

Yes, this is generally possible. However, the taps are designed as machine taps and unfold their full performance and the advantage of the spiral point best when used in a machine.
