Key Characteristics:
Adjustable Jaws or Collets: Securely clamp different tap sizes for versatility.
Rigid Steel Construction: Provides strength and durability to withstand the torque required for threading.
T-Bar or Long Handle Design: Offers optimal leverage and balanced turning motion.
Centred Alignment: Helps maintain straight entry into the hole for clean, accurate threads.
Available in Various Sizes: Suitable for small precision taps or larger, heavy-duty applications.
Common Uses:
Metalworking: Cutting threads into drilled holes in steel, aluminium, and other metals.
Woodworking: Installing threaded inserts or hardware into timber.
Repair Work: Re-tapping worn or damaged threads.
Precision Engineering: Fine threading in automotive, machinery, and tooling applications.
