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.

Ground Thread Left Hand Taper Tap Metric Coarse Straight Flute 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.

Guhring 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.

Series 205

Sherwood Reduced Shank Drills (Blacksmiths) - 1/2" Parallel Shank HSS

General-purpose drills for light duty work, for drilling steels, cast iron, nickel brass and graphite. Reduced parallel shank 1/2". Point angle 118, helix angle: normal, web thickness: standard, tolerance of diameter: h8, tolerance of shank: -0.01/0.08. Manufactured to BS328. Fracturing of the drill shank may occur if it is used for any other purpose or if extreme pressure is exerted on the drill.

Starrett Bi-Metal Holesaws Constant Pitch HSS

Bi-Metal Constant Pitch Holesaws have 6 teeth per 25mm/inch with an aggressive cutting action, featuring a HSS cutting edge welded to a tough alloy steel body. The Constant Pitch provides a smooth cut on thinner gauge materials, with minimal tendency to bite or snag on contact with irregular surfaces. Cutting depth 41mm (1 5/8").

Holesaw and Arbor sizes:
14-25mm - use Arbor A4 or K4.
30-210mm - use Arbor A10 or K10.

Spiral Point Tap BSF (British Standard Fine) Ground Thread HSS

A spiral point tap has a chiselled point that pushes the metal chips ahead of the forming threads. This is useful when tapping through-holes (holes that extend through the work piece).

Spiral Point taps are not recommended for use in blind holes: the accumulation of chips can bind and break the tap.

Eclipse Hacksaw Blades Bi-Metal HSS

Flexible bi-metal blade, shatter resistant for safe use under stress and twisting.

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.
