The clear\nthreads and universal square shank ensure a precise fit. The TiCN (Dark\nSilver-Black) coating has higher hardness and better wear resistance than TiN\n(Gold) coating and is suitable for processing hard to machine materials such\nas stainless steel, titanium alloy and high temperature alloy. It can\neffectively resist the problems of chip adhesion and oxidative chipping. The\nhand tap is a versatile tool that can be used to re-cut damaged or blocked\nthreads or create new threads. It is suitable for thread cutting in through or\nflat holes in mild steel, aluminium, iron, copper and hard plastic. Straight\ngrooves allow chips to be quickly dissipated downwards while working, allowing\nefficient tapping and making it a good choice for a range of applications.\nEnsure proper alignment, use proper tapping technique and apply even pressure\nwhen turning the tap to produce clean and precise threads. Reverse regularly\nduring tapping to shred chips and remove deposits from the grooves to avoid\nclogging and ensure smooth operation. It is recommended to apply a suitable\ncutting oil or cutting agent during thread cutting to achieve higher quality\nthreads and more durable taps.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eTap size - thread size: M21x1; shank diameter: 16mm \/ 0.63\"; total length: 110mm \/ 4.33\"; square head: 12mm \/ 0.47\"; groove shape: straight groove; cutting direction: right hand thread; type: twist drill.\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eMaterial - By adding 5-8% cobalt to a conventional 6542 high-speed steel twist drill, metric taps with cobalt can have higher hardness (67-68HRC) and precision, better wear resistance and toughness as well as higher heat resistance. The surface is coated with TiCN (Dark Silver-Black), which provides higher hardness and better wear resistance than the TiN (Gold) coating.\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eFeature - The main advantages of twist drills are that they can be easily used for through holes, but provide a more complete thread profile than taper drills. The straight grooves allow quick removal of chips downwards for efficient thread cutting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eApplication - The hand tap is a versatile tool that can be used to re-cut damaged or blocked threads or create new threads.

Turn the drill back regularly during cutting to break the chips and remove deposits from the grooves to avoid blockages and ensure smooth operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"QUARKZMAN","offers":[{"title":"M21x1","offer_id":44375005921460,"sku":"de-B0G16XDKCQ","price":181.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/9906\/1172\/files\/B0G16XDKCQ.jpg?v=1788270508","url":"https:\/\/auspowers.com\/products\/quarkzman-metric-tap-m21-x-1-cobalt-hss-tap-right-shank-diameter-16-mm-ticn-coating-flat-head-tap-with-straight-groove-m21x1","provider":"AusPower Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
