M2 × 0.4 spiral-point tap
This CLEVELAND C57027 spiral-point tap cuts M2 × 0.4 metric threads in through-holes and deep blind holes. The plug chamfer pushes chips ahead of the flutes so they exit the hole cleanly. It is made from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish and a right-hand thread direction.
High-speed steel with D3 thread limit
The 44.45 mm overall length and 11.11 mm thread length give reach for typical small-component work. Two straight flutes provide chip space while the D3 limit targets a 6H class of fit. A 1.60 mm drill produces the recommended 75 percent thread engagement for this size.
Check your tap holder and hole depth
Verify that your tap wrench or machine holder accepts the shank of a standard M2 tap. Confirm the workpiece material is suitable for an uncoated high-speed steel tool and that the hole depth does not exceed the 11.11 mm thread length. Ensure the 1.60 mm drill size is available for the tapping operation.
