UNEF (Unified extra fine)

Hand taps for UNEF, Unified extra fine thread

UNEF is finer still than UNF. It appears in thin-walled sleeves, fittings and instruments where there is simply no wall thickness for a coarser thread. Hand taps are turned by hand in a tap wrench. The thread is cut in several passes, because the work is shared between taper, second and bottoming tap.

VÖLKEL offers 40 versions to ISO 529, in HSS-G, from UNEF 1/4 x 32 to UNEF 1" x 20. Lead forms A, C and D cover through holes and blind holes.
