Hand Tap Set Art-Pol M8 x 1.25 mm, 3 pieces

Hand Tap Set Art-Pol M8 x 1.25 mm, 3 pieces is a compact manual threading kit designed to cut and restore metric internal threads M8 x 1.25. The set contains three sequential taps that allow controlled progression when forming threads in metal and other machinable materials. It is intended for workshop use, repair and maintenance tasks where manual threading is preferred or where use of a machine tool is impractical.

Advantages

The three-piece configuration provides the roughing, intermediate and finishing taps needed to produce accurate M8 x 1.25 threads while reducing the risk of tap breakage and improving thread quality. The taps are manufactured to metric thread profile and tolerances suitable for typical repair and light industrial applications. The compact set is easy to store and transport, and supports manual use with standard tap wrenches.

Suitable for

• Creating or restoring internal M8 x 1.25 threads in metal components
• Maintenance and repair work in workshops, garages and home projects
• Small-scale production or prototype work requiring manual tapping

Key specifications

• Thread size: M8 x 1.25 mm
• Number of pieces: 3 taps (sequential set for rough, intermediate and finish)
• Application: manual cutting of internal metric threads
• Material compatibility: suitable for common machinable metals and similar materials
• Use method: designed for use with hand tap wrench or similar manual holders

How to use

Select the correct pilot hole for M8 x 1.25 threads and secure the workpiece. Start with the first (roughing) tap, applying light pressure and turning evenly while backing off periodically to clear chips. Continue with the intermediate tap, then finish with the final tap to achieve the full thread profile. Use cutting fluid appropriate to the work material to improve chip evacuation and extend tool life. Maintain alignment throughout the process to avoid cross-threading.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a matching drill size for the pilot hole, apply lubricant suitable for the material being tapped, and remove chips frequently. Avoid excessive force and ensure taps are straight during operation to prolong tool life and achieve accurate M8 x 1.25 threads.
