OSG Taps

OSG type 1066 machine taps are manufactured from 3% Vanadium Super Grade High Speed Steel. Increasing the vanadium content improves the toughness without making the tap brittle. This means the tap has a greater resistance to work generated heat, which prolongs the life of the cutting edge.

Spiral Flute taps are suitable for threading blind holes.

Manufactured to ISO 529: 1975.

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
Above 5.5mm: plus 0.005mm minus 0.000mm.

Code numbers are determined by the nominal diameter. Delete the decimal point; create a four figure number by preceding the figures with a zero, if required. All codes finish with the letter A, i.e. 3.60 becomes 0360A.

ISCAR?s new Single-Ended Insert for Parting With an Improved Clamping Method

TAG Insert Features
* Very rigid clamping in a tangentially oriented pocket.
* Enables machining at very high feed rates and provides excellent straightness and surface finish.
* Recommended for parting large diameter parts and for * Offers a free, unobstructed chip flow, since there is no upper jaw as in the other clamping systems (very important in deep grooving and parting applications.
* The combination of tangential clamping and free chip flow results in improved tool and insert life time.
* Provides a solution to the problem of inserts being pulled out during retraction.

The TAG inserts are available with the familiar J- and C-Type chipformers, with neutral and angular frontal cutting edges. The new tools are equipped with a user-friendly clamping and extraction device. The TANG-GRIP family includes square shank tools, blades and inserts in 1.4 - 9.5mm widths in the most advanced IC830 and IC808 SUMO TEC grades. The blades are in standard siuzes which fit ISCAR's standard blocks.

Tang-Grip? TAG R/L-J/JS Parting & Grooving Inserts

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.
