Greenfield Threading CHICAGO-LATROBE M16 Tap Set
This three-piece hand tap set contains taper, plug, and bottoming taps for cutting M16 metric threads with a 2.00 pitch. The tools are manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish and feature four flutes. They conform to a 6H class of fit with a D7 thread limit for right-hand threading.
Suited for mechanics creating internal threads
The set suits mechanics and fabricators who need to cut new M16 x 2.00 internal threads in metal using hand tools. It is not for users requiring machine taps, spiral-point or spiral-flute geometries, or taps for different thread standards such as UNC or UNF. Buyers needing coated tools for extended life in abrasive materials should look elsewhere.
Verify the M16 x 2.00 thread requirement
Before ordering, confirm the workpiece material is compatible with high-speed steel and that the hole is drilled to the correct tapping size for this pitch. Ensure the 1 13/16 inch thread length and 3 13/16 inch overall length suit the workpiece depth and holder clearance. Check that a D7 limit and 6H fit match the application tolerance.

Questions about this item
What tap wrench size fits the 3 13/16 in overall length of the CHICAGO-LATROBE 174551 taps?
A standard M16 tap wrench or adjustable wrench covering 3 13/16 in overall length will engage the square shank on these HSS hand taps.
Can the D7 thread limit on these M16-2.00 taps cut threads for older 6g bolts?
The D7 limit produces a 6H class of fit; it will accept 6g external threads but the fit will be tighter than a 6g internal thread.
How do I confirm the 1 13/16 in thread length is cutting full-depth threads in a blind hole?
Run the bottoming tap to the stop; the 4-flute HSS tap should reach the full 1 13/16 in thread length without bottoming out prematurely.
