Greenfield Threading 3pc HSS Tap Set M2-0.40
The Greenfield Threading CHICAGO-LATROBE 174516 set contains three high-speed steel hand taps for cutting M2 x 0.40 metric threads. It includes taper, plug, and bottoming styles to start, continue, and finish threads in through-holes or blind holes. Bright uncoated finish suits general-purpose threading in steel and non-ferrous metals.
Suited for metric M2 thread repair
Mechanics and hobbyists cutting new threads or restoring damaged ones in tight spaces will find the three-chamfer sequence covers the full depth. Users needing larger diameters, different pitch, or coated taps for high-volume production should look at other options.
M2 x 0.40 thread size
The taps conform to a 6H tolerance class with a D3 thread limit, ensuring standard fit for metric coarse threads. Right-hand cut with three flutes and a 7/16 inch thread length on a 1 3/4 inch overall body. This specification determines compatibility with the intended hole and fastener.

Questions about this item
How much heat or noise does the CHICAGO-LATROBE 174516 tap set generate during extended use?
The taps produce no heat or noise themselves; all power, vibration and sound come from the drill or tapping head driving them.
What tool holder or drive does the M2-0.40 tap need to fit my machine?
The taps have a standard square shank for hand-tap wrenches or a tapping chuck with a matching square drive.
Will the D3 class 6H threads work in older metric holes cut to looser tolerances?
D3 6H taps cut a standard 6H internal thread; existing holes must be drilled to the correct tap-drill diameter for that class of fit.
