Preminium Quality HSS Cobalt Machine Taps

1. High Hardness: HSS cobalt machine taps are made from a combination of high-speed steel and cobalt. The addition of cobalt increases the hardness and wear resistance of the tap, ensuring it can withstand the demands of cutting threads in harder materials.
2. Extended Tool Life: The high hardness and wear resistance of HSS cobalt machine taps result in an extended tool life compared to standard HSS taps. This means fewer tool changes, reduced downtime, and increased productivity.
3. Heat Resistance: HSS cobalt machine taps have excellent heat resistance properties, allowing them to withstand higher cutting temperatures generated during the tapping process. This helps prevent tool wear and contributes to a longer tool life.
4. Versatility: HSS cobalt machine taps can be used on various materials, including stainless steel, alloy steel, titanium, and other hard materials. Their versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of industries and applications.
5. Precision Threads: HSS cobalt machine taps are precision-ground to ensure accurate and consistent thread cutting. The threads produced are of high quality, with uniform spacing and alignment.
6. Reduced Friction: The cobalt content in HSS cobalt machine taps helps reduce friction during the cutting process. This results in smooth cutting action, reduced chip buildup, and improved chip evacuation.
7. Excellent Chip Control: HSS cobalt machine taps have efficient chip flute designs that facilitate better chip removal. This helps prevent chip clogging and increases the efficiency of the tapping process.
8. Increased Productivity: With their extended tool life, improved heat resistance, and efficient chip control, HSS cobalt machine taps contribute to increased productivity in threading operations. Less downtime is required for tool changes, and the tapping process can be performed at higher speeds.
9. Wide Range of Sizes: HSS cobalt machine taps are available in a wide range of sizes, including various thread sizes and pitches. This allows for greater flexibility in choosing the right tap for specific threading requirements.
