Metric machine tap M10 FANAR model C2-111101-0104

Metric machine tap M10 FANAR model C2-111101-0104 is a precision cutting tool intended for producing internal M10 metric threads in machine tapping operations. Manufactured by FANAR, this machine tap is designed for use in standard machining setups and tapping machines. It is suitable for repetitive production work where consistent thread form and dimensional accuracy are required. For best results, use with appropriate holders, recommended spindle speeds, and cutting fluids matched to the workpiece material.

Advantages

This FANAR machine tap provides accurate M10 thread cutting with a geometry optimized for machine-driven tapping. The tool ensures repeatable thread dimensions and stable cutting performance in production environments. Its design supports compatibility with common tapping holders and machine spindles, and it can be used with cutting fluids to extend tool life and improve surface finish. The straightforward geometry and consistent manufacturing quality reduce the need for frequent adjustments during automated or semi-automated operations.

Suitable for

• Creating internal M10 metric threads in medium- to high-volume machine tapping operations
• Tapping in compatible materials where a machine tap is specified (metals and alloys suited to the tap geometry)
• Use in tapping machines, CNC machining centers, and dedicated tapping heads with appropriate holders
• Applications requiring consistent thread form and dimensional repeatability

Key specifications

• Thread size: M10 metric internal thread
• Application: machine tapping operations
• Compatibility: for use with standard tapping holders and machine spindles
• Usage environment: suitable for production and repetitive tapping tasks
• Recommended use with cutting fluid and correct spindle speed for material

How to use

Mount the tap securely in a suitable tapping holder or collet that provides axial guidance and concentricity. Set the machine or tapping head to the correct spindle speed and feed appropriate for the workpiece material and tap size. Use cutting fluid suited to the material to reduce heat and improve chip evacuation. Engage the tap with light approach, then apply steady feed to maintain thread pitch; withdraw periodically if necessary to clear chips. After tapping, inspect thread dimensions and surface quality, and clean the tapped hole to remove chips and cutting fluid residues.

Usage recommendations

Always confirm the correct drill size for the M10 tap and select spindle speed and feed based on the workpiece material. Use suitable cutting fluid and ensure the tap is properly aligned to minimize breakage and ensure consistent thread quality. For automated setups, verify holder rigidity and machine synchronization to prevent excessive loads on the tap.
