Precision threading tap designed for metric coarse threads, ideal for engineers, machinists, and serious hobbyists who need dependable internal threads in metalworking projects. The Europa Straight Flute threading tap combines robust materials with clear identification for smooth, repeatable tapping results.

• Thread Type: Straight flute design optimized for metric coarse threading (M16 x 2), delivering clean, consistent cuts.
• Size & Pitch: M16 x 2 coarse thread for general-purpose through-holes and standard components.
• Material: HSS-E (high-speed steel with cobalt) for enhanced heat resistance and longer tool life in demanding materials.
• Identification: White ring marker provides quick, unambiguous recognition of this specialized configuration in busy workstreams.
• Construction Detail: Precision-ground flutes and threaded cutting edges ensure accurate pitch and alignment with steady performance.
• Applications: Suitable for threading steel, cast iron, and aluminum components in production, prototyping, and repair tasks.

The Europa Threading Tap delivers reliable, repeatable thread quality with reduced risk of breakage thanks to its cobalt-infused HSS-E construction. The straight flute design aids efficient chip evacuation in through-holes, while the white ring marker allows fast selection in cluttered toolboxes. Ideal for shop floors, engineering workshops, and any project requiring precise M16 x 2 internal threads.
