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.

Sherwood® Spotting Drills Solid Carbide

Sherwood 90° solid carbide spotting drills are designed for close tolerance hole location, Carbide spot drills are more wear resistant than HSS spot drills. Suitable for continuous production on Aluminium, Plastics, Free Cutting Steels, Cast Iron, Titanium and some Aerospace materials. The stability of Carbide makes the tool more rigid and is less likely to deflect, maintaining a higher level of accuracy. Operators should note that continuous heavy shock loading may cause the tool to fail due to its brittleness.
