Frequently Asked Questions

What is OSG spiral point tap M6x1 used for?

The OSG spiral point tap M6x1 is used for through-hole threading in metalworking. Its spiral point design pushes chips ahead, reducing clogging in production environments. Common applications include automotive, aerospace, and general machining where clean, accurate M6 threads are required in steel and cast iron.

What are the specifications of OSG tap 16722?

OSG tap 16722 is a spiral point tap with M6x1 metric thread, OH2 / 6H tolerance, 3 flutes, plug chamfer, and black oxide high speed steel construction. It is designed for through-hole threading and provides good wear resistance in ferrous materials. The OH2 / 6H class ensures precise thread fit.

How to select the right OSG spiral point tap for M6 threads?

Select an OSG spiral point tap based on material, thread class, and hole type. For through holes in steel, use a plug chamfer with OH2 / 6H tolerance. Ensure the tap matches the thread pitch (M6x1) and flute count (3) for chip evacuation. Black oxide coating aids lubrication. Always match tap to workpiece hardness.
