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.

Second Tap Metric Fine Straight Flute Ground Thread HSS

The Sherwood 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 a fully threaded diameter is reached. If threading a blind hole a Plug tap will be required to cut threads to the bottom of the hole.

Starratt Bandsaw Blades

Super Flex-Back is recommended for general-purpose cutting at an attractive cost on easy to machine materials; blades have excellent fatigue endurance to give long life on machines running at a high surface feet per minute. High carbon/chromium `pinpoint carbide` tool steel. Hardened and tempered tooth tips - 64/66 Rockwell C Hardness. Economical, general-purpose cutting. Recommended applications: light section low alloy steels, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, furniture and composition board.

DNMG

Suitable for External/Internal Toolholders.

Taper Tap UNF (Unified Fine) Long Shank Straight Flute Ground Thread HSS

Sherwood taper taps are used to start cutting the thread is 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.

Sandvik Threading Toolholders and Inserts

Sandvik's 266 CoroThread toolholders and inserts provide a high level of stability for threading applications in demanding industries, where precision is paramount.

266 CoroThread Toolholders

Sandvik CoroThread 266 toolholders achieve threading insert stability with a new design of iLock insert locking interface on the toolholder. This keeps the insert rigid, maintains the correct threading profile and reduces out-of-specification product rejection. The insert has a slot for each of its three indexable cutting edges. One slot is located on a raised guide rail on the new interface of the shim. This guide rail locks the insert in its correct position in the pocket, giving repeatable accuracy with each threading pass.

All of this means that the cutting loads on the insert are dispersed with no pressure points; insert and holder maintain their design integrity. Leading to longer tool and holder life, less downtime for tool changes and greater continuity of production!

Walter Titex Jobber Drills Steam Tempered HSS

Suitable for drilling steel, cast steel, alloyed and unalloyed, grey cast iron, spheroidal iron, sintered powder metal, German silver and graphite. Manufactured to BS328/DIN338RN.

Black Finish (W-Finish)
This is the most common surface finish and is the result of a steam tempering operation in which steam is passed over the product during a controlled tempering cycle, producing a black oxide layer. Black tools are generally recommended for ferrous applications where the oxide layer aids chip flow, helps to dissipate heat by retaining some coolant on the tool surface and also helps to prevent the tool from staining.
