Machine Tap FANAR M4 C2-511801-0040

The FANAR Machine Tap M4 C2-511801-0040 is a precision tool for cutting internal metric threads with a 4 mm nominal diameter. Designed for use on tapping machines and CNC equipment, this tap is intended for machining operations in metalworking and mechanical assembly where reliable M4 threads are required. The geometry and material selection support accurate thread profile reproduction and consistent performance in production environments.

Advantages

This machine tap offers consistent dimensional accuracy and a cutting profile adapted to standard metric M4 threads. Its design facilitates stable chip evacuation and reduces the risk of thread deformation, which helps maintain repeatability across multiple cycles. The tap is suitable for industrial use, with construction that supports heat and wear resistance typical for taps used in workshop and production settings.

Suitable for

• Tapping internal M4 threads in steel and non-ferrous metals
• Automated tapping on CNC machines and dedicated tapping machines
• Batch production and repetitive assembly operations
• Repair and maintenance tasks requiring M4 threads

Key specifications

• Thread size: M4 (4.0 mm nominal diameter)
• Type: machine tap for internal threading
• Intended use: for tapping machines and CNC tapping cycles
• Application: metalworking and mechanical assembly
• Design features: geometry optimized for chip control and thread profile accuracy

How to use

Mount the tap in a suitable tapping chuck or collet holder designed for machine tapping. Ensure correct axial alignment and secure clamping to prevent runout. Select appropriate spindle speed and feed based on material, tool manufacturer recommendations, and machine capabilities. Use a compatible cutting lubricant to improve surface finish and extend tool life. When using a CNC machine, program peck or retract cycles as required to manage chip evacuation and avoid tap breakage.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match cutting speeds and feeds to the workpiece material and apply an appropriate lubricant. Inspect threads and tool condition regularly during production runs, and replace the tap when wear affects thread quality. When tapping deep or blind holes, use pecking cycles or through-hole strategies to ensure proper chip removal.
