Hand Tap Intermediate DIN 352 HSS-G - M 96 x 6.0 | VÖLKEL
Hand Tap Intermediate DIN 352 HSS-G - M 96 x 6.0
This intermediate hand tap supports manual thread cutting when you work with a multi stage hand tapping sequence.
This intermediate hand tap follows DIN 352. The HSS G ground execution is commonly selected when you need controlled cutting edges.
- Create metric ISO internal threads by hand in steel and comparable alloys, depending on workpiece condition and cutting fluid.
- Use when you want controlled thread geometry for assembly without additional forming steps.
- Suitable for staged hand tapping sequences where an intermediate tap is required.
- Applied in maintenance and repair environments where you need repeatable thread quality for assembly.
- Process: manual driving or assisted driving depending on your holder and machine setup
- Use: thread cutting, re tapping, and thread cleaning depending on condition
Note Start the tool square to the hole axis, use suitable cutting fluid, and keep the tap wrench stable to protect the cutting edges.
- Intermediate hand tap supports controlled progression in a tap set
- HSS G ground execution supports consistent edge geometry
- DIN 352 proportions support predictable handling
- Suitable for manual threading with standard tap wrenches
- Supports repeatable assembly fit when preparation is correct
Drawbacks
- Not suitable for very hard or highly abrasive materials, depending on execution
- Not intended for high performance tapping without rigid guidance and controlled coolant
- Verify the required thread specification.
- Create the pilot hole and remove burrs at the entry.
- Hold the tap wrench square to the hole axis.
- If your process uses multiple stages, use this intermediate tap after the lead tap.
- Apply cutting fluid suitable for the material.
- Cut the thread with steady rotation and controlled torque.
- Clear chips as needed and avoid forcing the tool.
- Clean the thread and verify fit.

- What does intermediate mean for a hand tap?
Intermediate describes the second stage tool in a common hand tapping sequence. It is typically used after a lead tap to deepen and refine the thread profile, depending on your process.
- Do you always need more than one hand tap for a full thread?
Not always, but many manual processes use multiple stages to control cutting forces and alignment. Check your shop standard and the required thread depth before you decide.
- Can you use the tool in the size M 96 x 6.0 by hand and in a machine?
Yes, depending on your holder and setup you can drive the tool by hand or with a machine. Focus on alignment, lubrication, and controlled torque to protect the cutting edges.
- Can you run this tap in a machine and in a hand setup?
Yes, depending on your holder and setup you can drive the tool by hand or with a machine. Focus on alignment, lubrication, and controlled torque to protect the cutting edges.
- How do you choose the correct pre drilled hole for tapping?
Use a drill size recommendation that matches the thread and tolerance requirement. Use a chart from your process documentation or the manufacturer, and avoid guesswork.
- Where can you find technical background on hand taps and correct use?
Use this document for selection guidance and general process parameters: Technical information hand taps as PDF.
- What lubrication should you use for thread cutting?
Use a cutting fluid suitable for the workpiece material and the tapping method. Stable lubrication supports surface quality and helps control torque.
- Where can you find the VÖLKEL threading tools catalog for additional sizes and executions?
