## Summary description

Left-hand manual hand tap set FANAR M16, two-piece kit for cutting internal left-handed metric threads. Designed for use with M16 threaded holes where reverse-thread direction is required. Suitable for manual tapping operations in metalworking, maintenance and repair tasks, and small workshop use; compatible with standard tap holders and wrenches.

## Long description

Left-hand manual hand tap set FANAR M16, two-piece kit for cutting internal left-handed metric threads. This set includes two sequential taps sized for M16 left-hand threads, intended for manual tapping operations where the thread direction is reversed compared to standard right-hand threads. The FANAR hand taps are designed for use in metalworking, maintenance and repair tasks, and small workshop applications. The taps are compatible with standard tap holders and wrenches and are intended for cutting and restoring internal threads in components made of common engineering materials.
Advantages
The FANAR left-hand M16 tap set provides a compact, two-piece solution for accurate internal thread cutting. The left-hand configuration allows threading in applications that require reverse-threaded fasteners or for operations such as removing seized right-hand fasteners. The two-piece design offers roughing and finishing functionality to improve thread quality and prolong tool life when used appropriately. The taps are suitable for manual use, giving the operator direct tactile feedback during cutting and minimizing the need for powered tapping equipment in limited-production or field service environments.
Suitable for
Cutting new M16 left-hand internal threads in metal components
Repairing or restoring damaged left-hand M16 threads
Maintenance and field service tasks where reverse-thread fasteners are used
Small workshop and hobbyist machining where manual tapping is preferred
Key specifications
Thread size: M16 left-hand metric
Set composition: two taps (typically roughing and finishing)
Operation: manual hand tapping compatible with standard tap holders and wrenches
Application material: suitable for common engineering metals (steel, cast iron, non-ferrous alloys) when used with appropriate cutting lubricant
How to use
Secure the workpiece and ensure the hole is pre-drilled to the correct diameter for an M16 left-hand thread. Select the first (roughing) tap and align it square to the hole. Use a suitable tap wrench and apply steady, controlled rotational force in the left-hand (reverse) direction to cut the thread. Periodically reverse the tap slightly to break chips and clear swarf, and apply cutting lubricant appropriate for the work material. Once the roughing tap has passed through, switch to the finishing tap to produce the final thread form and improve surface finish. Clean the thread and inspect for correct fit with a suitable left-hand M16 bolt or gauge.
Usage recommendations
Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped, maintain straight alignment during cutting, and avoid excessive torque to reduce the risk of tap breakage. For hardened materials or production environments, consider machine tapping tools or taps designed for high-strength alloys. Store the taps in a dry place and protect cutting edges from impact to preserve tool life.
