standard TwinBox Machine Tap + Twist Drill, DIN 371, HSS-E, M 10 x 1.5 is a TwinBox combination for preparing and cutting M 10 x 1.5 with the drill and tap kept together for the specified metric threading task. Select it by thread designation, standard, material execution, and hole type stated in the product name.
Metric ISO threads use the M designation and are common in mechanical engineering, maintenance, and standard fastening work. Use the drill first and the tap afterward under stable alignment. The TwinBox format helps keep the two related tools together, but process checks such as lubrication and thread verification remain necessary.
- Use the TwinBox combination when the tapping tool and matching twist drill are supplied together for a defined metric thread task.
- Select the TwinBox by thread designation, tool standard, material execution, and hole type stated in the product name.
- Use the drill first to prepare the hole, then use the tap under controlled alignment and lubrication.
- 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 Verify the workpiece preparation, thread designation, and holder alignment before starting. VÖLKEL uses and recommends spiral drills from LÖHER. LÖHER product catalog as PDF
