Fanar Tap M16 DIN-376C R40 (6H) Hsse Inox

The FANAR TAP M16 DIN-376C R40 (6H) HSSE INOX is a high-performance machine tap designed for threading stainless steel and other tough materials. Manufactured from premium HSSE (High-Speed Steel with Cobalt), this tap offers exceptional wear resistance and heat tolerance, ensuring long tool life even in demanding applications. With a metric coarse thread (M16 x 2.0 mm) and a 6H tolerance class, it produces precise internal threads that meet DIN 376 standards. The spiral flute design with a 40° helix angle efficiently evacuates chips, making it ideal for through-hole threading. The chamfer form C (2-3 threads) provides a gradual cutting action, reducing torque and improving thread quality. This tap is uncoated (bright finish) and features a cylindrical shank with a square drive for secure machine holding.
