Machine Tap FANAR M10 C2-513X01-0100 — metric M10 machine tap

FANAR machine tap M10 C2-513X01-0100 is a metric M10 cutting tool intended for internal thread making on machining centres and lathes. Designed for machine tapping, this M10 tap provides accurate thread profiling and consistent chip evacuation to support high-quality, repeatable M10 threads in production and repair environments. It is suitable for use in steel and other machinable metals where machine-controlled tapping is required.

Advantages

The tap delivers precise M10 thread geometry and stable cutting performance for machine tapping operations. Its design promotes effective chip removal to reduce clogging and minimise tap wear. The tool is intended for reliable, repeatable results when producing internal metric M10 threads on automated equipment as well as on manual machine tools running in tapping cycles.

Suitable for

• Creating internal M10 threads in steel components
• Machine tapping on CNC machining centres
• Tapping operations on lathes with tapping cycles or rigid tapping
• Repair and maintenance work requiring consistent M10 threads

Key specifications

• Thread size: metric M10
• Intended use: machine tapping for internal threads
• Material compatibility: steel and other machinable metals
• Chip evacuation: designed for consistent chip removal during tapping
• Application context: suitable for machining centres and lathes

How to use

Install the tap securely in a suitable tapping holder or spindle collet designed for machine tapping. Set the machine to the correct spindle speed and feed for M10 tapping in the chosen workpiece material, and use the appropriate cutting lubricant or coolant to improve tool life and thread quality. Use consistent tapping cycles or rigid tapping where available, and monitor engagement to avoid excessive axial load or misalignment. Retract the tap fully between passes if using peck tapping or reversing cycles to clear chips and prevent breakage.

Usage recommendations

For best results, select spindle speed and feed based on the workpiece material, use suitable cutting fluid, and ensure correct alignment of the tap with the hole axis. Regular inspection for wear and maintaining chip clearance will help preserve thread accuracy and extend tool life.
