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 BSW (British Standard Whitworth) 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.

Dormer Solid Carbide Drills

The new Dormer MP-X range of multi-application carbide drills are cost effective, high performance drills that offer high productivity and supreme value for money. A wide range of materials can be machined using a minimum number of drills, to reduce stock-holding and associated costs.

MP-X Solid Carbide Drills

Dormer MP-X solid carbide drills deliver the following benefits and features:

Benefits
? Exceptional value with no compromise on quality.
? High productivity.
? Excellent hole quality.
? Availability.
? Reduced tooling costs.

Material
Micro-grain carbide for an excellent combination of hardness and toughness, resulting in high wear resistance and longer tool life.

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.
