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 Taps 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.

Ground Thread Left Hand Tap Sets Metric Coarse Straight Flute 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.

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

First choice for soft materials, parting of tubes, small diameters and thin-walled parts. Cutting edge with positive rake. General applications on low carbon steel, alloy steel, austinitic stainless steel. Low-to-medium feed.

IC808 Grade Description:
A tough submicron substrate improved TiAIN PVD coated grade for better chip flow. Designed for machining heat resistant alloys, austenitic stainless steel, hard alloys and carbon steel at medium to high cutting speeds, interrupted cut and unfavourable conditions. Excellent notch wear and built-up edge resistance.

Dijet and Indexa Seiki? Toolholder and Insert Sets

This set contains an Indexa Seiki? SCLCR boring bar and 10 Dijet CCMT inserts.

SCLCR Boring Bar and Insert Set

This Dijet and Indexa Seiki? Toolholder and Insert Set consists of 1x SCLCR screw on style boring
bar and 10x CCMT inserts.
S08K SCLCR 06 - Right Hand
95 approach for 7 positive.
80 rhombic inserts.
0.05 - 0.3mm/rev.
D.O.C.: 0.25 - 2mm.


Grade description for Dijet JC215V: (ISO P10-P40 K25-K40).
On the weather-resistance and tougher base material, multi-thicker coating are adopted. This grade shows twice better tool life as conventional grade. Medium to high speed cutting for steels and medium speed cutting for cast iron. UT - With a low feed rate and small depth of cut, excellent metal removal can be obtained. Reduces the cutting force and prevents the excessive built-up edge in cutting mild steels, low carbon steels and alloy steels.

Dormer 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.
