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.

Tap Set Metric Coarse 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.

Sherwood Ground Thread Chasers HSS

Used for the lathe turned production and repair of threads.

Coating
Multi-layer titanium aluminum nitride (TiAlN) coating gives:
? Improved stability of cutting edges.
? Outstanding wear protection.
? High hardness properties.
? High toughness and oxidation stability
? Longer tool life and higher productivity.

Flute Geometry
Strong web design gives excellent crosssectional strength and facilitates chip evacuation.

Point Geometry
140 point angle with good centring capabilities and low thrust force design, suited to multiapplication drilling.

Multi-Application
Multi-application drilling across a wide range of materials, including:
? Carbon and alloy steels.
? Stainless steels.
? Cast iron.
? Aluminium.
? Magnesium alloys.
? Copper.

Suitable for Regrinding
The quality of design will allow consistently high levels of performance and tool life after the product is reconditioned, providing further cost reduction benefits.

Guhring Machine Chucking Reamers Intermediate Diameter HSS-E

Available in diameters ranging from 2mm to 10mm in increments of 0.01mm. Made from HSS-E steel with a bright finish, left hand spiral flute. For all ferrous and non-ferrous metals and hard and soft plastics. For use on CNC machines, producing high quality reamed holes. Manufactured to DIN 212 and DIN 2172 section 1.

Shank diameter equals cutting diameter - 0.025mm.
dia 2.00 - dia 2.65 / dia 2.66 - dia 10.00 H9.

Diameter Tolerances (to H7)
Up to 5.5mm: plus 0.004mm minus 0.000mm

Dormer Stub Drills HSS TiN Tip Coated

Designed for increased productivity and tool life compared to standard stub drills. TiN coating has been applied to 35%-50% of the flute length (dependent on drill diameter) to keep cost down and lower the cost per hole. The 135 split point is advantageous for the pre-drilling of rivets and for drilling in sheet metal. Suitable for drilling alloy steel, carbon steels, cast iron, titanium and aluminium. Manufactured to DIN1897, ANSI.
