M10x1.5 Spiral Point Tap for Metric Threads
This Cleveland C55364 tap cuts internal M10 threads with a 1.5 mm pitch in through-hole applications. The spiral point design pushes chips forward, reducing clogging during high-volume production runs. It suits machinists and maintenance teams working on metric fasteners in steel and similar materials.
D6 Limit and 6H Fit Define the Thread Tolerance
The tap is manufactured to a D6 thread limit for a 6H class of fit, controlling the pitch diameter allowance. A 75 percent thread drill size of 8.50 mm is required to prepare the hole correctly. Using a different drill size or fit class will produce threads outside the intended specification.
High Speed Steel with TiN Coating Extends Tool Life
The cutter body is high speed steel coated with titanium nitride for increased surface hardness and wear resistance. This combination handles the cutting temperatures encountered in general-purpose ferrous machining. The coating is not designed for abrasive non-ferrous alloys or hardened steels above typical HRC ranges.

Questions about this item
Which Cleveland C55364 spiral point tap should I pick for an M10 x 1.5 metric thread?
The C55364 is a single M10 x 1.5 tap with a D6 thread limit for a 6H class of fit, so you select this exact model when that thread size and tolerance are required.
What does the 74.61 mm overall length mean when the tap is in my drill or tapping head?
The 74.61 mm overall length determines how deep the tool can reach into a hole, while the 31.75 mm thread length is the portion that actually cuts the M10 x 1.5 threads.
Does the high-speed steel and TiN coating change what speeds or feeds I can run on a standard tapping chuck?
High-speed steel with TiN coating allows higher cutting speeds and better wear resistance than uncoated HSS, but the practical limit is still set by your machine's tapping chuck rigidity and the 8.50 mm drill size for 75 percent thread engagement.
