M14x2.00 spiral-flute tap for blind holes
This Widia Gtd tap cuts M14 metric threads with a 2.00 mm pitch in a single pass. The bottoming chamfer and three right-hand flutes evacuate chips toward the shank, making it suitable for through-spindle coolant on CNC machines or rigid tapping on manual mills. High-speed steel with black-oxide coating resists wear in steel and stainless alloys.
Replaces worn or undersized M14 taps
A fresh D7-limit tap restores the 6H class of fit when an existing tool has dulled or when a previous tap cut threads too tight for the intended fastener. The jump is worth it when thread gauges show pitch-diameter growth beyond tolerance or when chip packing in deep blind holes causes tap breakage.
Limited to M14x2.00 metric threads only
The 91.2 mm overall length and 25.4 mm thread length fix the maximum usable depth, while the 12.00 mm drill size at 75 percent thread engagement defines the only core-hole diameter that matches the design. The tool cannot cut other pitches, diameters or thread standards without regrinding.

Questions about this item
What size tap drill do I need for the M14×2.00 thread?
Use a 12.00 mm drill to produce the recommended 75 % thread engagement before tapping.
How do I start the tap straight in a blind hole?
Apply steady axial pressure while turning the square shank with a tap wrench; letting the tap wander at the start is the common error that ruins the thread.
When should I replace this tap?
Replace it once the cutting edges dull or chip — typically after several hundred holes in steel — because worn flutes cannot clear chips and will break in the 25.4 mm thread depth.
