Machine Tap FANAR M2 C4-111101-0020 — metric M2 machine tap (right-hand, HSS)

Machine tap FANAR M2 C4-111101-0020 — metric M2 machine tap (right-hand, HSS) is a precision tool designed for cutting M2 threads in metal and similar materials. Made from high-speed steel (HSS), this right-hand tap is intended for use in machine tapping operations, including automatic and CNC tapping heads. Its geometry and material make it suitable for fine-thread production in small parts, prototypes, and assemblies where consistent thread form and tool life are required.

Advantages

The HSS construction provides good wear resistance and toughness for repeated machine tapping cycles. Designed specifically for M2 metric threads, the tap offers consistent thread profile and dimensional accuracy when used with appropriate feeds and speeds. Its compatibility with machine tapping setups reduces manual handling and increases repeatability in production environments. The right-hand threading orientation matches standard fastening conventions and common machine tool configurations.

Suitable for

• Precision electronic components and PCB hardware
• Watchmaking and micro-mechanical parts
• Prototype and small-series metal parts production
• CNC and automatic tapping heads in production lines

Key specifications

• Thread size: M2 (metric)
• Hand: right-hand thread
• Material: high-speed steel (HSS)
• Application: machine tapping (CNC/automatic tapping heads)
• Intended use: precision, small-diameter threading

How to use

Secure the workpiece and ensure proper alignment with the machine tapping head or CNC spindle. Select appropriate cutting speed, feed rate and lubrication based on the workpiece material and manufacturer recommendations for M2 HSS taps. Engage the tap using steady axial feed; for blind holes use controlled pecking or chip breaking to avoid chip accumulation. After tapping, reverse the spindle to withdraw the tap cleanly and inspect the thread for dimensional accuracy and surface finish.

Usage recommendations

Use cutting fluid or lubricant suited to the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Confirm machine rpm and feed for small-diameter M2 threads to minimize deflection and breakage risk. Replace the tap if wear or chipping appears to maintain consistent thread quality.
