Product Overview: High-Speed Powder Metallurgy Spiral Point Tap Metric – 5HMC Series
【Product Features & Why We Recommend It】
- French Brand Professional Quality: Originating from a professional French cutting tool brand with rigorous quality control — recommended for users with high demands on high-hardness material metric thread tapping accuracy and tool durability.
- HSS-PM Powder Metallurgy Advanced Substrate: Manufactured with powder metallurgy high-speed steel (HSS-PM), delivering more uniform carbide distribution and higher toughness compared to standard HSS and HSS-CO — recommended for applications requiring long-duration stable high-speed tapping or with strict tool life requirements.
- TiCN Advanced Coating Enhancement: The surface is treated with TiCN coating, providing higher hardness and wear resistance compared to standard TiN coating — with maximum machining hardness up to HRC42, recommended for continuous high-speed tapping of higher-hardness carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel, effectively extending tool change intervals.
- Spiral Point Through-Hole High-Efficiency Design: Features a spiral point tap design that pushes chips forward and out of the hole — recommended for through-hole high-speed tapping operations, ensuring smooth tapping and thread accuracy, well-suited for high-efficiency automatic tapping in NC machining centers.
- 25 Metric Specification Precise Coverage: Available in thread diameter 2–24mm and pitch 0.4–3mm across 25 specifications — recommended as the high-performance stock tool for metric through-hole tapping of high-hardness steel and stainless steel materials.
【Machining Applications & Uses】
- Primary Use: High-hardness material metric through-hole high-speed thread tapping, NC machining center high-efficiency automatic tapping, and precision thread forming in carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel.
- Recommended Work Materials:
- P-Class (Carbon Steel / Alloy Steel): Structural steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel — recommended for hardness below HRC42, where HSS-PM combined with TiCN coating delivers outstanding high-speed tapping wear resistance performance, representing the ideal application scenario for this series.
- M-Class (Stainless Steel): SUS304, SUS316, and other high-toughness stainless steel — the TiCN high-hardness coating combined with HSS-PM powder metallurgy substrate effectively suppresses work hardening and cutting heat accumulation, recommended for use with appropriate cutting fluid.
