Thread Repair Tap M10 × 1.25
This Heli-Coil STI tap cuts internal threads sized for M10 × 1.25 screw-thread inserts. The straight-flute design with four flutes suits hand tapping in through-holes or blind holes. Overall length is 86.00 mm with a 42.00 mm thread length. Bright uncoated high-speed steel construction handles general-purpose threading tasks.
Mechanics Restoring Damaged Metric Fine Threads
The plug chamfer and D10 limit produce standard-fit threads for helical-coil insert installation. Technicians repairing stripped M10 × 1.25 holes in aluminium or steel components will find the geometry appropriate. Shops needing bottoming-chamfer taps for blind holes close to a shoulder should select a different chamfer style.
Plug Chamfer D10 Limit Determines Fit
The plug chamfer starts threads easily but does not cut to the bottom of a blind hole. The D10 thread limit controls the pitch-diameter tolerance of the tapped hole so the finished insert meets the required fit class. Verify that the application calls for a plug chamfer and D10 limit before purchasing.

Questions about this item
Will the M10x1.25 thread size match the existing holes in my older fixture?
The tap cuts a metric fine M10x1.25 thread with a D10 limit and a 42.00 mm thread length, so it matches holes made to that exact specification.
How can I confirm the plug chamfer is cutting correctly once I start tapping?
A plug chamfer with four straight flutes should start easily and produce clean, continuous chips; if the tap binds or chips are torn, the alignment or lubrication needs adjustment.
Does the 86.00 mm overall length include a handle, or must I buy a tap wrench separately?
The 86.00 mm length is the tap itself; a suitable tap wrench or T-handle is not included and must be purchased separately.
