Hand Tap Set FANAR M10 — 3-piece (MPN A2-235831-0100)

FANAR hand tap set for M10 threads is a three-piece kit intended for cutting and restoring internal M10 threads in metal and other machinable materials. The set includes progressive tap sizes for roughing, intermediate and finishing passes, allowing controlled material removal and a clean thread profile. Designed for manual tapping operations, the set is compact and suited to workshop repairs, maintenance tasks and small-scale production where accuracy and tool consistency are required.

Advantages

The three-piece configuration provides staged cutting action that reduces tap breakage and improves thread quality compared with single-pass taps. Hardened cutting edges maintain durability under manual use and repeated sharpening cycles. The set’s matching sizes ensure compatibility between passes, producing consistently sized M10 threads. Compact dimensions and straightforward handling make the set easy to store and use in confined workspaces.

Suitable for

• Repairing damaged internal M10 threads in machinery and assemblies
• Manual tapping in maintenance and service workshops
• Small-batch or prototype production requiring M10 internal threads
• General metalworking where controlled thread cutting is needed

Key specifications

• Thread size: M10 internal threads
• Contents: three progressive taps for roughing, intermediate and finishing passes
• Intended materials: metals and other machinable materials suitable for hand tapping
• Application method: manual hand tapping
• Tool form: straight hand taps designed for sequential use

How to use

Select the roughing tap to remove the bulk of material, then follow with the intermediate tap to establish the thread form and finish with the final tap to achieve the required tolerance and surface finish. Use a suitable tap wrench and ensure the workpiece is properly secured and the hole is correctly drilled to the recommended drill size for M10 threads. Apply cutting fluid appropriate to the material to reduce friction and collect chips, and back the tap out periodically to clear swarf and check progress. Maintain slow and steady rotation to avoid tap breakage.

Usage recommendations

For best results, confirm hole diameter and material type before tapping, use appropriate cutting lubricant, and perform taps in the correct sequence from rough to finish. Inspect taps regularly for wear and replace any tap showing excessive dulling or damage to avoid compromised thread quality.
