The 166-00544 5-44 High Speed Steel Left Hand Taper Tap is a hand tap with a 7 to 10 thread chamfer. Also known as a starter tap, its longer chamfer provides a less aggressive cutting action. High Speed Steel offers good wear resistance for general-purpose applications.
This taper tap is typically used for hand tapping through holes and in applications where a tap guide is necessary, including general-purpose work in ferrous and nonferrous materials.
