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 Coarse Long Shank 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.

Indexa-Seiki? Indexable Boring Bars

Indexa-Seiki??s range of indexable tooling includes, face mills, end mills, boring bars and turning toolholders. All Indexa-Seiki? indexable tooling is manufactured to recognised ISO standards to ensure that the insert is clamped securely in the toolholder or milling body. The exceptional stability of Indexa-Seiki? indexable tooling when in operation, ensures you achieve the precision that you require in the finished component, every time.

Indexable tooling is the modern solution for all machining applications as the carbide inserts held in indexable tool holders can be changed as required to machine different types of material, many inserts have multiple cutting faces, once one face is blunt simply rotate the insert in the toolholder this flexibility helps to eliminate expensive down time and regrinding costs helping you to increase production and drive down running costs.

We are confident that from our selection of indexable toolholders, you will find the tool appropriate to the machining operation you are carrying out.

A full range of spares are readily available for all Indexa-Seiki? Indexable Tooling, please refer to our catalogue for details.

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.
