Machine tap FANAR M8 C2-511101-0080 for threading M8 internal threads

FANAR machine tap M8 C2-511101-0080 is a precision cutting tool designed to produce internal M8 metric threads during machine tapping operations. Manufactured for consistent thread form and dimensional accuracy, this tap is intended for use in production and repair environments where repeatable, standard M8 threads are required. The tool is suitable for a variety of ferrous and non-ferrous materials when matched with appropriate machining parameters and lubrication.

Advantages

The tap delivers uniform thread geometry and dimensional repeatability for M8 internal threads, reducing the need for rework. It is built to withstand the demands of machine tapping, providing stable cutting performance and predictable tool life when used with correct speeds, feeds and coolant. Designed for compatibility with common machine tap holders, it facilitates efficient integration into automated or manual tapping setups.

Suitable for

• Production tapping of M8 threads in component manufacturing
• Repair and maintenance operations requiring replacement or rethreading of M8 holes
• Batch and automated machine tapping processes
• Workshops machining steel, castings, aluminium and other machinable metals (with appropriate settings)

Key specifications

• Thread size: M8 (metric)
• Intended use: machine tapping for internal threads
• Thread form: standard metric profile for M8 threads
• Construction: solid single-piece cutting tool suitable for machine operation
• Recommended environment: industrial and workshop machine tapping

How to use

Mount the tap in a suitable machine tap holder or spindle designed for through or blind hole tapping. Select cutting speed, feed and lubrication compatible with the workpiece material and follow the machine manufacturer’s guidelines. Align the tap accurately with the hole axis before engaging, start the spindle at the prescribed RPM and use controlled feed to maintain thread accuracy. Retract the tap periodically or use peck tapping cycles to clear chips when machining deep or interrupted holes.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material, monitor wear and replace the tap when thread quality degrades. Verify alignment and machine rigidity to prevent tap breakage, and follow safety procedures for machine tapping operations.
