Hand Tap Set FANAR M3 — 2 pcs (A1-120001-0030)

FANAR hand tap set for cutting internal M3 metric threads, supplied as a pack of two taps. The set is intended for manual thread cutting and repair operations in metalworking and general maintenance where precise M3 threads are required. Designed for workshop use, small repairs, prototyping and assembly tasks, the taps provide a compact solution for producing or restoring internal threads in components made of common machinable materials.

Advantages

The FANAR M3 hand taps are supplied as a matched pair to cover typical tapping steps and to extend tool life during repeated use. Their geometry is optimized for manual operation, ensuring stable thread engagement and reduced risk of cross-threading when used with appropriate lubrication and correct alignment. The compact two-piece set is convenient to store and transport, and it supports accurate, repeatable M3 internal thread formation in repair and production environments.

Подходит для

Key specifications

• Thread size: M3 (metric)
• Quantity: 2 taps per set
• Intended use: manual hand tapping of internal threads
• Typical applications: metalworking, maintenance, prototyping, assembly
• Compatibility: suitable for common machinable metals and some plastics when correct technique and lubrication are used

How to use

Secure the workpiece and ensure the hole is pre-drilled to the correct diameter for an M3 thread. Use a suitable hand tap wrench or holder to keep the tap aligned with the hole axis. Apply cutting fluid or lubricant to the tap and workpiece to reduce friction and chip formation. Turn the tap slowly, advancing one half to one full turn, then reverse slightly to break chips and clear the thread. Continue until the required thread depth is reached, then back the tap out carefully while keeping the axis aligned.

Usage recommendations

Use a correctly sized drill for M3 pilot holes and appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped. Maintain straight alignment with a hand tap wrench, avoid excessive force, and clear chips frequently to prevent tap breakage. Inspect tapped threads after cutting and clean chips and lubricant from threaded holes before assembly.
