RUKO HGB Set DIN 352 HSS-Co 60° M16 x 2.00 Hand Tap Set, 3-Piece

For machinists and maintenance technicians threading M16 holes in steel or cast iron, this RUKO hand tap set provides a complete solution for cutting metric coarse threads. The set includes three taps: taper, second, and bottoming, allowing you to produce full threads in both through and blind holes. Manufactured from HSS-Co (high-speed steel with cobalt), the taps offer enhanced heat resistance and wear life compared to standard HSS, making them suitable for unalloyed and alloyed steels, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals.

Why choose it

The cobalt alloyed steel construction delivers higher hot hardness, allowing the taps to maintain cutting performance at elevated temperatures. The set covers the three essential tap types for producing accurate threads from start to finish. The DIN 352 standard ensures compatibility with common tap wrenches and holders.

Ideal use cases

• Creating M16 coarse threads in steel components
• Repairing damaged threads in machine housings
• Threading blind holes where a bottoming tap is required
• Maintenance and repair workshops working with ferrous and non-ferrous metals

Good to know

The recommended core hole diameter of 14.00 mm should be drilled before tapping. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread quality.
