Threading Tap Art-Pol M14 x 1.0 mm, metric cutting tool for M14×1.0 threads

Art-Pol threading tap M14 x 1.0 mm is a metric cutting tool designed to create internal M14×1.0 threads in metal and other compatible materials. Intended for hand or machine tapping, this tap provides precise thread geometry for repair, assembly and fabrication tasks where a fine-pitch M14 thread is required. It is compatible with standard tap wrenches and tapping machines and should be used with appropriate cutting fluid to ensure smooth cutting and long tool life.

Advantages

This M14 x 1.0 metric tap offers accurate thread profiles and consistent pitch, allowing reliable assembly of M14×1.0 fasteners. The tool is suitable for both manual and machine tapping operations, providing versatility across shop and field applications. Its cutting geometry facilitates chip evacuation and reduces torque during cutting when used with proper lubrication.

Suitable for

• Repair and replacement of threaded holes requiring M14×1.0 threads
• Assembly and fabrication of machinery parts with fine-pitch M14 fasteners
• Creating new internal threads in steel, aluminium or similar materials
• Workshop and on-site maintenance tasks using hand or machine tapping

Key specifications

• Thread size: M14 × 1.0 mm (metric fine pitch)
• Type: internal threading tap for through or blind holes (hand or machine use)
• Application materials: metals and compatible engineering materials
• Recommended use: with tap wrench or tapping machine and cutting fluid

How to use

Select a properly sized pilot drill for the M14×1.0 thread, secure the workpiece, and apply cutting fluid to the hole to reduce friction and improve chip flow. Start tapping with steady pressure, ensuring the tap is perpendicular to the workpiece. For hand tapping, turn the wrench evenly, reversing slightly every full turn to break chips. For machine tapping, set appropriate spindle speed and feed, monitor torque, and retract regularly to clear chips. After tapping, clean the hole and inspect the threads for correct fit and finish.

Usage recommendations

Use cutting fluid suitable for the material being tapped and maintain correct pilot hole diameter to achieve precise M14×1.0 threads. Replace the tap if cutting becomes inconsistent or if chips bind, and avoid excessive force to prevent tool breakage.
