The HSS 2nd Stage Tap is an essential tool for creating accurate and consistent threads in metal components. Designed as an intermediate tap, it follows the first-stage tap in a three-stage tapping process, progressively deepening and refining the thread profile to reduce cutting resistance and enhance precision.
Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), these taps offer excellent wear resistance and durability, making them ideal for use on materials such as steel, aluminium, brass, and cast iron. The precision-ground flutes ensure smooth cutting and efficient chip evacuation, minimising the risk of breakage and prolonging tool life.
Available in M3 to M24 sizes, these metric 2nd stage taps are perfect for general engineering, machining, and maintenance applications.
