"M" - Blind hole

High-Quality Blind Hole Taps M

Before cutting a thread, it is essential to ensure the use of the correct tool. Unlike through holes, a blind hole does not have a continuous core drilling for the thread. Since the hole is only open on one side, you must use a special blind hole tap for ISO threads M. Otherwise, the resulting chips would not be properly removed upwards. This is not an issue with through hole drills, as in a so-called through hole, chips can be discharged both upwards and downwards. Our machine taps for blind holes are suitable for cutting threads for ISO thread M in a variety of materials. Depending on the design, a blind hole tap HSSE can process the following materials, among others:

• Steel (alloyed and non-alloyed)
• Brass
• Copper
• Aluminum
• Various plastics

The exact specifications and requirements depend on the starting material. For particularly high-strength steel and other materials, we recommend using blind hole taps HSSE, as they feature a proprietary alloy with 5% cobalt. This alloy is more resistant and increases the service life when working with high-strength steels and comparable materials.

Blind Hole Taps for ISO Thread M

Proper thread cutting involves using the correct tool for the specific type of thread. Although ISO threads can generally be compatible with other international thread types according to metric standards, converting measurements (e.g., inches to millimeters) is a significant source of error that frequently leads to practical problems. You can avoid costly scrap due to incorrect drilling or wrong thread sizes by using the correct type of thread with the blind hole tap. Additionally, thread sizes marked with the letter M are not suitable for producing metric ISO fine threads. For these, please search our range for machine taps for blind hole MF or for the respective other thread types you need.
