HexTap Type S Threading Bit, 1/4" hexagon drive Form D HSS-G - M 7 x 1.0

Your HexTap Type S - Tap Bit M 7 x 1.0: Thread Cutting Made Easy!

Looking for a flexible and efficient thread-cutting solution that integrates seamlessly into your daily work? Then the HexTap Type S - Tap Bit M 7 x 1.0 from VÖLKEL is exactly the right tool for you! This innovative tap is specifically designed to offer you maximum precision and versatility when cutting metric ISO threads.

What is This Tap Bit and What Makes It Special?

The HexTap Type S is a single tap bit that combines the advantages of a traditional tap with the convenience of a bit for machine drive. This means it handles the entire threading process in a single pass, and it's extremely adaptable to your preferred working method.

Its Special Features at a Glance:

• Versatile Drive: With its 1/4" hex drive (Form D), this tap bit fits perfectly into most common tools. Whether it's a cordless drill/driver, hand drill (with forward and reverse), or even stationary drilling machines – the HexTap Type S is ready to use. It's also suitable for manual thread cutting if you use a suitable bit holder.

• Optimized for Cordless Drills: It's specifically designed for use with cordless drill/drivers. Your cordless drill/driver should provide at least 7.5 volts of power for optimal results.

• HSS-G Material: Made from high-performance high-speed steel (HSS-G), this tap bit offers excellent cutting performance and good wear resistance. The "G" here stands for ground (geschliffen) finish, which means higher precision and sharper cutting edges compared to rolled taps.

• Form D Chamfer: This chamfer form is typically designed for single-pass tapping (hence "single tap"), allowing the thread to be cut in one operation.

• Efficient Chip Evacuation: The tap bit's geometry ensures efficient chip evacuation, reducing clogging and promoting a clean thread profile.

Important Application Note: Always ensure that the tool axis and the hole axis are perfectly aligned. Precise alignment is crucial for a clean and dimensionally accurate thread. Always use a suitable cutting oil to minimize friction, reduce heat generation, and maximize the tap's lifespan.

Explanation of the Standard and Tolerance:

• Metric ISO Thread DIN 13:

  • This designates the thread type that this bit cuts. The metric ISO thread is the most widely used thread standard worldwide, established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

  • DIN 13 is the German industrial standard that specifies the details for metric ISO threads (e.g., thread profile, pitch, nominal dimensions). This thread has a flank angle of 60°. The nominal size M 7 x 1.0 means an outer diameter of 7 mm and a pitch (distance between two threads) of 1.0 mm.

• Tolerance ISO 2 / 6H:

  • Tolerance indicates the permissible deviation range of the thread from its nominal size. It's crucial for the fit and function of a screw connection.

  • ISO 2: Stands for a medium tolerance class for taps. This class is designed for general use and offers a good balance between manufacturing effort and fitting accuracy. It's the most commonly used tolerance for metric threads and ensures smooth assembly and disassembly of the connection.

  • 6H: This is the international tolerance class for internal threads.

    • The digit "6" refers to the tolerance quality; a smaller number means a tighter and more precise tolerance.

    • The letter "H" indicates the tolerance position. "H" means that the lower deviation of the internal thread is equal to the nominal size. This guarantees that all standard screws with the corresponding tolerance class (e.g., 6g or 6h) will fit into this thread without problems, allowing for a play-free but non-binding connection.
