Threaded hole creation

The Cleveland C55363 spiral point tap cuts M8x1.25 metric threads in through holes. It suits maintenance technicians and metalworkers who need reliable internal threads for fasteners in steel or similar materials.

Machine setup and chip management

The plug chamfer starts threads easily on a drill press or tapping head. Two flutes and the spiral point push chips ahead of the cut, reducing flute clogging and the need for frequent reversal during operation.

Extended cutting life

Titanium nitride coating on the high speed steel body increases surface hardness and reduces friction. This maintains cutting geometry over repeated use, keeping thread quality consistent across long production runs.

Questions about this item

Will the D5 thread limit hold tolerance during a long production run?

The D5 limit on this M8×1.25 tap is ground to a 6H class of fit, so it stays within spec through extended use.

Does the TiN coating keep the flutes cool enough for continuous threading?

TiN reduces friction and heat buildup on the two flutes, letting the tap run all day without overheating the workpiece.

What drill size do I need before I start tapping with this tool?

Use the 75 percent thread drill size marked H to prepare the hole for this M8×1.25 spiral-point tap.
