Emuge has added 87 new SKUs to its MultiTap line of taps designed to cut a range of materials including carbon steel, steel alloys, stainless steel, aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass and bronze.
Emuge has added 87 new SKUs to its MultiTap line of taps designed to cut a range of materials including carbon steel, steel alloys, stainless steel, aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass and bronze. MultiTap features a geometric design along with a base material and surface treatment designed to enable the taps to handle a range of materials and applications. The company says that the line eliminates the need to stock numerous types of taps in the tool crib. MultiTap is designed to produce threads within both 2B and 3B classes of fit, removing guesswork from choosing the correct H limits.
The tool is made of high-vanadium cobalt high-speed steel (HSS-E), nitrided with an Ne2 surface treatment or TiCN coating for extended tool life. It is available in both spiral-point and spiral-flute configurations for through- or blind-hole applications. Tap sizes cover a full range for UNC or UNF threads, ranging from #4 to 40, 1" to 12" and from M4 × 0.7 to M24 × 3.0.
