Thread Tap Set Abraboro AB45300044, HSS-G taps M3–M12, 45 pieces

Abraboro AB45300044 Thread Tap Set contains 45 HSS-G taps in metric sizes from M3 to M12, designed for cutting internal threads in both through and blind holes. The taps are manufactured from high-speed steel with ground flutes to provide consistent tooth geometry, dimensional accuracy and improved wear resistance under general metalworking conditions. The assortment covers the common metric range used in maintenance, repair and production environments, allowing users to select the correct tap for a variety of materials and hole types.

Advantages

The HSS-G material and ground flute design deliver a balance of toughness and precision suitable for a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The set format provides a complete size range from M3 to M12, reducing the need to purchase individual taps for common thread sizes. Consistent manufacturing tolerances help achieve accurate thread form and good fit with standard bolts and fasteners. The assortment is arranged to support both through-hole and blind-hole tapping operations and is intended for use in workshop, maintenance and light production settings.

Suitable for

• Cutting internal threads in through holes
• Cutting internal threads in blind holes
• General metalworking and fabrication tasks
• Maintenance and repair of machinery and equipment
• Small-batch production and workshop use

Key specifications

• Tap material: High-speed steel with ground flutes (HSS-G)
• Size range: Metric M3 to M12
• Number of pieces: 45 taps covering progressive sizes within the range
• Application: Internal threading for through and blind holes
• Typical compatible materials: Mild steel, alloy steel, cast iron, aluminium and other common metals (observe cutting data per material)

How to use

Select the tap that matches the desired thread size and ensure the drilled hole diameter matches the recommended core diameter for the thread. Secure the workpiece and use an appropriate tap wrench or machine tapping holder. Apply suitable cutting fluid and use steady, controlled rotational motion while maintaining alignment with the hole axis. For blind holes, periodically reverse the tap slightly to break and clear chips. Follow correct feed and speed recommendations for the workpiece material and tool condition to achieve accurate threads and prolong tool life.

Usage recommendations

Use recommended drill sizes and cutting speeds for the specific material being machined. Inspect taps for wear before use and replace damaged tools to avoid poor thread quality. When tapping stainless steel or other tough alloys, reduce speed, increase lubrication and consider using intermediate pilot holes or stepped tapping where appropriate.
