Cleveland C64116 Pipe Tap 1/8"-27
This Cleveland C64116 pipe tap cuts internal threads to a 1/8"-27 NPS specification using four flutes. The semi-bottoming design allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes. It is intended for maintenance technicians and machinists who need to create or repair pipe threads in workshop or field settings.
High-speed steel construction with bright finish
The high-speed steel body provides durability for hand or machine tapping operations. A 75 percent thread drill size Q is required to prepare the hole correctly; using an incorrect drill size is the most common cause of tap breakage or poor thread quality. Apply cutting fluid and maintain alignment to prevent chipping the uncoated flutes.
Thread length 3/4 in with four-flute chip clearance
The 3/4 inch thread length suits standard pipe fittings and conduit connections. Four flutes offer improved chip evacuation compared to two-flute taps, reducing loading in ductile materials. The tap reaches its limit in very deep blind holes or extremely hard alloys where a bottoming tap or specialised coating would be necessary.
