M6-1.00 Straight Flute Tap Kit
The Cleveland C54416 is a three-piece hand tap set for cutting M6 metric threads with a 1.00 mm pitch. It suits maintenance technicians and workshop users who need to create or repair internal threads in metal components. The high-speed steel construction provides durability for general-purpose threading tasks.
High-Speed Steel Cutting Performance
Bright uncoated high-speed steel offers reliable wear resistance during manual tapping operations. The four-flute design helps evacuate chips efficiently to reduce binding and maintain thread accuracy. Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener requirements for common assembly work.
6H Class Fit with D5 Thread Limit
Thread limit D5 and class of fit 6H ensure produced threads meet standard metric tolerances for general fastening. The 5.00 mm drill size prepares holes for approximately 75 percent thread engagement. Overall length of 2 1/2 inches and 1 inch thread length provide adequate reach for typical through-hole and blind-hole applications.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Cleveland C54416 straight flute hand tap and what step is often missed?
Use a 5.00 mm drill for the 75 percent thread depth, then run the tap by hand with a tap wrench; the step often missed is reversing frequently to break chips in the four flutes.
What maintenance or replacement will the Cleveland C54416 tap need later?
The high-speed steel cutting edges will dull with use; replace the tap when threads show tearing or require excessive torque, as the bright uncoated finish cannot be re-sharpened economically.
What limit appears first on the Cleveland C54416 tap during sustained threading?
Chip packing in the four straight flutes is the first limit; without frequent reversal the 1 in thread length fills with swarf, increasing torque and risking tap breakage in the M6-1.00 hole.
