Number & Letter Gauge Drills:
Gauge drills are still in common use in the U.S. In the past, they were popular elsewhere, but now have been largely discarded in favour of metric sizes. When using a gauge rather than a standard measurement of size the user has to refer to a table of gauge sizes. For example, to drill a hole which is 10 thou (thousandth of an inch .0010) bigger than a 1/8 inch bolt, the user must first work out that 1/8 inch is 125 thou, so the hole size needed is 135 thou, and then must look up in a reference book which gauge drill bit is closest to this diameter - a number 29. Number gauge sizes are similar or equivalent in some respects to, but different from, American wire gauge. Number gauge is usually used from size 80 (the smallest) to size 1 (the largest) followed by letter gauge size A (the smallest) to size Z (the largest). Number gauge is actually defined down to size 97, but these smaller sizes are rarely encountered. It happens that as the technology for making small drill bits and drilling small holes has become more available, metric drills have become the norm.

Sherwood Taps

Sherwood HSS Taps are the general purpose option for thread cutting in most materials including steel, some stainless steels, cast irons and non-ferrous materials such as Aluminium, Brass and many others.

Manufactured with precision ground flutes for producing accurate thread forms, Sherwood Taps are available in all the popular thread forms and as straight Flute `Hand` Taps in 3 leads, Fluteless, Spiral Flute, or Spiral Point Machine Taps and also Long Series.

Sherwood Tap dimensions conform to ISO529 apart from NPT Forms which conform to ANSI 94.9. Straight Flute and Fluteless Taps are manufactured with a standard Bright Finish whereas the Machine Taps have an Oxidised Finish for best results dissipating the heat build-up associated with these applications.

Thread Forms are Class 2 medium fit tolerance.

For all technical and dimensional specifications please refer to our catalogue.

Tap Set BSF (British Standard Fine) Straight Flute Ground Thread HSS

Each set of Sherwood taps contain one taper, second and plug lead tap:

Sherwood HSS Taper Taps are used to start cutting the thread. They are tapered back from the end 6 to 10 threads before a fully threaded diameter is reached. This allows the tap to be positioned easily and correctly before it starts to cut the thread.

The Second Tap is used after the taper tap has cut threads into the hole as far as possible. It tapers back 3 or 4 threads before full thread diameter is reached.

The Plug Tap cuts threads to the bottom of a blind hole. It is only necessary to use the full set of taps when a blind hole is to be tapped.

Carbide Tipped Holesaws

Kennedy carbide tipped holesaws last up to 10 times longer than standard hole saws and resist wear and heat caused by friction much better than traditional holesaws, making them the best choice for cutting tough material such as tile, stainless steel.

Holesaw and Arbor sizes:
14-30mm - use Arbor K1 or K4.
32-210mm - use Arbor K2 or K10.

Spiral Flute Tap BSPF (British Standard Pipe Fine) Ground Thread HSS

Spiral flute taps are used for machine tapping of blind holes as the have a spiral flute that channels the swarf back behind the tap and out of the hole along the flute.
