• Use in workshop production, maintenance, and fabrication where the stated thread designation must be matched accurately.
• Select the tool by the thread system, size, and form stated in the product name before the job begins.
• Process: manual driving or assisted driving depending on your holder and machine setup
• Use: thread cutting, re tapping, and thread cleaning depending on condition
• Support service workshops, toolrooms, plant maintenance, and general mechanical engineering work.

Note Confirm thread designation, holder concept, and workpiece condition before you start the operation.

• Manual control helps when machine tapping is not practical.
• The set sequence supports thread starting and follow up stages in order.
• Ground or HSSE tool execution supports precise geometry and dependable cutting behavior.
• Suitable for repair benches, maintenance work, and smaller lot sizes.

• Manual threading is slower than a dedicated machine process in repetitive production work.
• It is intended for controlled manual work, not for high throughput automated production.

1. Match the hand tap set to the thread designation shown on the drawing and in the product name.
2. Prepare the hole and secure the workpiece so the tap can start square to the surface.
3. Mount the first tap stage in a suitable tap wrench and align it carefully by hand.
4. Advance the tool with steady torque and maintain alignment as the thread starts.
5. Continue with the following tap stage from the set if the sequence requires it for the final thread form.
6. Withdraw the tool, remove chips from the hole, and check the finished thread with the intended mating part.
