Tap set 3 pcs Bituxx M4 x 0.7 in PP case (JBC-TAP4x0,7)

Three-piece tap set by Bituxx for cutting or repairing internal threads in metric size M4 x 0.7. The set includes three taps covering the typical tapping stages—usually taper, plug (intermediate) and bottoming—allowing progressive thread cutting for clean, accurate M4 x 0.7 threads. Taps are supplied in a compact polypropylene (PP) case that keeps tools organized and protected during storage and transport. The set is intended for use in metals, plastics and general workshop applications and fits standard hand tap wrenches as well as tapping machines where M4 x 0.7 threads are required.

Advantages

The three-step configuration provides controlled material removal and improves thread quality by progressing from initial cut to final finish. Individual taps are sized for the conventional sequence, reducing the risk of tap breakage and easing chip evacuation. The polypropylene case offers durable, lightweight protection and keeps all three taps organized for quick selection. The set’s compatibility with common hand tap wrenches and machines makes it versatile for repair and production tasks.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Cutting new internal M4 x 0.7 threads in thin or thick-walled metal and plastic parts
• Repairing damaged or worn M4 x 0.7 threads
• Workshop maintenance, prototype and small-series production
• Tapping in jigs or fixtures using manual or machine tap holders

Key specifications

• Thread size: M4 x 0.7 (metric)
• Set composition: three taps for standard tapping sequence (taper, intermediate/plug, bottoming)
• Material suitability: metals and plastics (general-purpose)
• Storage: polypropylene (PP) case for organization and protection
• Compatibility: designed for use with standard hand tap wrenches and tapping machines

How to use

Secure the workpiece and center-punch or drill the recommended pilot hole for M4 x 0.7 threads. Start with the first (taper) tap and rotate it clockwise with a hand tap wrench or machine holder, applying steady pressure and backing off periodically to break chips. Progress to the intermediate (plug) tap and finish with the bottoming tap for full-depth threads if required. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material to reduce friction and improve chip removal. Reverse the tap carefully to remove it from the hole, clean chips from the flutes, and inspect the thread for fit and finish.

Usage recommendations

For best results, choose the correct pilot drill size for M4 x 0.7, maintain alignment of the tap during cutting, and use suitable cutting lubricant depending on the workpiece material. Replace taps that show signs of wear, chipping or dulling to avoid poor thread quality or tap breakage.
