“The benefits of carbide available for tapping applications”
CT-FC – cast iron.
These taps are made of ultra-fine micrograin tungsten carbide; they show excellent wear resistance and high toughness, so they are recommend for mass-production threading.
MC-AD-CT – aluminium alloys.
For a better efficiency on blind hole tapping in such materials as aluminium die castings and aluminium alloy castings. These taps adopt ultra fine grain carbide with high wear resistance feature and TiAIN coating.
EH-CT – hardened steel 45~55HRC.
Ultra fine grain carbide alloys with superior wear resistance and shock resistance are adopted. By using the tap blanks in which both the run-out tolerance and the shank concentricity are improved, the high accuracy in screw threads can be obtained.
UH-CT – hardened steel 50~63HRC.
Suitable for tapping SKD die steels and pre-hardened steels which hardness ranges in 50-60 HRC (Maximum hardness 63 HRC).
