Frequently Asked Questions

What is a WIDIA GTD thread forming tap used for?

A WIDIA GTD thread forming tap creates internal threads by displacing material rather than cutting it, producing stronger threads in ductile materials like aluminum, brass, and mild steel. It is ideal for applications requiring chip-free threading, such as automotive and general manufacturing.

What are the specifications of the WIDIA GTD #12-24 UNC thread forming tap?

This WIDIA GTD tap is #12-24 UNC, with an H4 / 3B tolerance class and a bottoming chamfer for threading to the bottom of blind holes. It is made from high-speed steel (HSS) and carries manufacturer part number 17238. The H4 fit ensures precise thread engagement.

Where to buy WIDIA GTD thread forming taps worldwide?

3G Electric supplies WIDIA GTD thread forming taps worldwide, handling full logistics and customs clearance for international orders. As a global industrial solutions provider, we source genuine parts like the #12-24 UNC tap (MPN 17238) and deliver to your facility, regardless of location.

How to select the right thread forming tap for a job?

Select a thread forming tap based on material type, thread size, and hole configuration. For ductile materials, use a forming tap like this WIDIA GTD #12-24 UNC. Choose a bottoming chamfer for blind holes and a spiral point for through holes. Always match the tap tolerance (e.g., H4) to the required thread class.
