The Europa Threading Tap is a forming (roll-forming) solution built for metric coarse threads. Designed for engineers and machinists who demand fast, reliable thread formation in production environments, this tap combines a tough HSS‑E core with a TiN coating for extended life and smooth operation.

• Type: Forming (Roll) threading tap for metric coarse threads
• Size: Metric coarse M16 x 2
• Material: HSS‑E (high-speed steel, engineered for durability)
• Coating: Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating reduces wear and friction
• Shank: Straight shank for stable engagement with standard tapping machines
• Forming Action: Roll-forming design forms threads by plastic deformation for strong, tight threads

In use, the forming action displaces workpiece material rather than cutting away chips, delivering strong threads with better torque tolerance and resistance to loosening. The HSS‑E core provides robust performance under high tapping forces, while the TiN coating extends tool life by reducing wear during repetitive production runs. This combination yields consistent thread quality across long production runs, minimizes scrap, and simplifies maintenance. Ideal for manufacturing fasteners, housings, brackets, and any component requiring reliable M16 x 2 metric coarse threads in steel and other ductile metals.
