MASTERTAP M8 špirálový závitník DIN 371 6HX HSSE-PM blank

Machine tap for through holes, engineered from powder-metallurgy high-speed steel with cobalt for exceptional wear resistance and a 45° spiral flute that efficiently evacuates chips forward. The MASTERTAP series delivers reliable thread production in a wide range of materials, from steels to superalloys.

Advantages

HSSE-PM substrate provides superior toughness and edge retention compared to conventional HSS, extending tool life in demanding applications. The 45° helix angle ensures smooth chip flow in through-hole threading, reducing torque and the risk of chip packing. A bright finish offers clean cutting performance without coating, ideal for general-purpose use. The C chamfer form (2-3 threads lead) balances ease of starting with thread quality.

Suitable for

• Through-hole threading in steels, stainless steels, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and superalloys
• CNC machining centres, tapping machines, and manual equipment with rigid tapping cycles
• Production environments requiring consistent thread quality and high tool life
• Threading M8 x 1.25 mm threads to tolerance class 6HX
