Application

You use this tap set for grease nipple thread service where several common lubrication-point threads must be available in one compact set. It is intended for maintenance work on machinery, vehicles, agricultural equipment, and service parts with grease nipple connections.

The set should be selected by the existing grease nipple thread and by the required operation, such as re-tapping or cleaning an internal thread. Use the matching tap only after checking the thread system and size on the component.

Application

  • for workshop thread service where several related tools are required in one case
  • for the stated thread range M / BSP M6-M8x1-M10x1-M10x1.25-G1/8-G1/4 when it matches the component being serviced
  • for maintenance and repair work where internal and external thread operations must be separated by tool type
  • 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 Select the individual tool by the original thread on the component and do not mix different thread systems inside one repair step.

Benefits

  • The set groups common grease nipple thread tools for service and maintenance tasks.
  • Different thread systems in one case support work on varied lubrication points.
  • HSS-G material is stated in the product data and supports precise cutting in suitable materials.
  • Case packaging helps keep the small service taps available at the maintenance bench.
Drawbacks
  • The set cannot identify the existing grease nipple thread for you, so check the component thread before selecting a tap.

Step by step

  1. Identify the original thread on the component before opening the set.
  2. Choose the tool group for internal or external thread work.
  3. Select the exact size that matches the component thread.
  4. Clamp the tool in a suitable holder or drive setup.
  5. Apply suitable cutting fluid for the material and repair situation.
  6. Cut, re-tap, or clean the thread with controlled alignment.
  7. Inspect the thread before returning the component to service.
