Emuge's Line of Roll Form Taps for Medium Strength Steels
Emuge's Innoform–Steel-M is a line of HSSE-PM taps designed for forming threads.
The Innoform-Steel-M line of HSSE-PM taps from Emuge feature polygon geometry for low torque and longer life. A powdered metal substrate and TiN-66 coating with increased hardness reduces friction and extends tool life, according to the company. The taps are recommended for forming cold-extension steels, cementation steels, castings, heat-treatable, nitriding and cold work steels and high-alloyed and hot work steels.
Taps are available in styles for blind or through-hole applications in lead taper forms C/2-3 and E/1.5-2 threads, and in solid or coolant-through capability, over 80 models in total. Inch taps are available in UNC and UNF thread sizes, feature 2BX class of fit and DIN length and ANSI shanks, while metric taps feature coarse and fine thread sizes with 6HX class of fit and DIN length and DIN shanks.
