VÖLKEL Hand Tap 2-Piece Set DIN 40432 HSS-G - PG 11 x 18: Your Specialist for Steel Conduit Threads
Need robust and precise threads for electrical installation conduits? The VÖLKEL Hand Tap 2-Piece Set DIN 40432 HSS-G - PG 11 x 18 is the ideal choice for tradesmen and electricians who value quality and reliability. This set was specifically developed for manual production of steel conduit threads and consistently delivers clean, standard-compliant results thanks to its high-quality HSS-G material.
What Makes This VÖLKEL Hand Tap Set So Special?
This set is designed for the specific requirements of PG threads, offering you the highest precision and durability:
PG Thread – What Is It?
PG stands for "Panzerrohr-Gewinde" (Armoured Conduit Thread) and is a standardized thread specifically for electrical installations (according to DIN 40 430). It differs from metric threads by its shallower profile and is designed to securely guide and protect cables in steel conduits.
The nominal size PG 11 x 18 refers to the thread size. PG 11 is the nominal width of the conduit for which the thread is intended.
DIN 40432 Standard: This set complies with the DIN 40432 standard, which specifically defines the dimensions and tolerances for taps used for steel conduit threads. This ensures that the threads you cut will perfectly fit the corresponding conduits and fittings.
2-Piece Set – Why? A 2-piece set consists of a taper tap (rougher) and a bottoming tap (finisher).
Taper Tap: Starts the thread and removes most of the material. This significantly reduces the effort required and protects the bottoming tap.
Bottoming Tap: Cuts the thread to its final depth and exact profile. The result is a precise, standard-compliant thread with an optimal surface finish. This two-stage approach allows for easier and cleaner thread cutting, especially in tougher materials, and extends the lifespan of both tools.
HSS-G Material: Made from High-Speed Steel (HSS-G), where the "G" stands for ground. This means the taps are precision-ground, ensuring:
Extremely Sharp Cutting Edges: Allows for clean and precise cuts.
High Concentricity: Important for dimensionally accurate threads.
Increased Hardness and Wear Resistance: Your set remains highly performant and delivers consistent results even with regular use.
Where Can You Use This VÖLKEL Hand Tap Set?
This tap set is an indispensable tool for:
Electrical Installations: The primary application is in the production of threads for electrical installation conduits, cable glands, and housing feed-throughs.
General Workshop Use: It's also suitable for well-machinable materials beyond electrical engineering.
Free-Machining Materials up to 900 N/mm²: Excellent for machining steel (unalloyed and low-alloy steels), cast iron, non-ferrous metals (like aluminum, copper, brass), and plastics.
Through Holes and Blind Holes: Thanks to the 2-piece set, you can precisely tap both through holes and non-through (blind) holes with a PG thread.
For Manual Use: The dimensions and design of the taps are optimally suited for use with a tap wrench or a suitable holder for hand taps.
