Xtap – one tap for everything

[ 4 ] Rm < 850 Rm 850-1100 Inox Stainless Maximum productivity Thread tapping is all about thread quality, process reliability, and productivity. The high performance level of the new Xtap thread tap is the sum of its technological features. Redefined cutting edge rounding The cutting edge, which is rounded as a function of the dimensions, reinforces the cutting wedge and increases process reliability and reproducibility in the process. The robust cutting edge, with sufficient reserves, ensures uni- versal use in various materials. Wear is ensured to increase at a constant rate even under unfavorable conditions. Tooth contour Flute contour Redesigned cutting edge geometry The perfected flute form is crucial to universal use in various materials. The optimized cutting wedge also sets new standards in wear behavior. The result: greater productivity and cost efficiency in thread tapping. A new magnitude of process reliability In difficult machining situations, the level of process relia- bility decreases in various materials. Even small deviations in the material, environment, or strategy can provoke a tool breakage. The new coating FRAISA-AlCrTiN plays a big role in increasing process reliability.
