RUKO HGB-DIN352-HSS-60°-M3.5x0.60mm Hand Tap

Machinists and maintenance technicians rely on the RUKO HGB-DIN352-HSS-60°-M3.5x0.60mm hand tap when they need clean, accurate internal threads in general purpose materials. This tap is part of a set of three—taper, second, and bottoming—to progressively cut a metric thread to full depth.

Why choose it

The HSS construction provides durability for threading in a range of materials, while the 60° thread angle matches standard metric threads. The set of three taps allows for gradual cutting, reducing the risk of tap breakage and improving thread quality.

Ideal use cases

• Creating internal M3.5 threads in metal workpieces
• Repairing damaged threads in maintenance applications
• General purpose threading in workshops and manufacturing

Good to know

Use a suitable tap wrench with the 2.7 mm square drive. For best results, drill a 2.9 mm core hole before tapping. The bright finish is uncoated, so apply cutting fluid during use to extend tool life.
