A-SFT-H42
Spiral Tap for Medium-Hardness Steel
In tapping medium-hardness steels around 40 HRC, the primary challenges are rapid tool wear and the tendency for chips to become stringy and difficult to control. The A-SFT-H42 features a flute geometry specifically optimized for medium-hardness steel, improving durability and enabling longer tool life. In addition, its optimized shank length helps prevent chip entanglement and promotes smooth chip evacuation, significantly reducing machine stoppages and improving operational efficiency. Fewer machine interruptions contribute to higher productivity and support labor-saving manufacturing.
