RUKO MGB-DIN376-HSSCo-vap.-M5x0.80mm Machine Tap

Machine tap for metric coarse threads with a nominal diameter of M5 and pitch 0.80 mm, manufactured from high-speed steel with cobalt (HSSCo) and steam tempered (VAP) surface. The spiral point flute type (Form C) pushes chips forward, making it ideal for through holes in steel, stainless steel, and cast iron.

Advantages

Steam tempered surface reduces friction and improves chip flow, while the cobalt alloyed HSS offers high heat resistance and wear resistance. The spiral point design allows high cutting speeds and efficient chip evacuation in through holes.

Suitable for

• Through hole threading in steel, stainless steel, and cast iron
• Machine tapping on CNC machines and machining centers
• Metric coarse threads M5 x 0.80 mm
