Machine Tap FANAR C4-118M01-0060 for 6 mm threads

FANAR machine tap C4-118M01-0060 for 6 mm threads is a solid cutting tool designed for producing internal metric threads in metal components. Engineered for machine tapping operations, this tap provides a defined thread profile and consistent performance when used with appropriate tapping equipment and cutting parameters in production or workshop settings.

Advantages

The tool offers precise form-cutting of 6 mm metric threads and consistent dimensional accuracy across multiple cycles. Its solid construction supports stable engagement with workpieces during machine tapping and helps maintain thread geometry under typical machining loads. The design is suitable for use in repetitive production processes and repair or maintenance tasks in metalworking environments.

Suitable for

• Forming internal M6 threads in steel, stainless steel, and non-ferrous metals when using correct machining parameters
• High-volume production tapping on CNC machines and tapping heads
• Workshop and maintenance operations requiring repeatable thread quality

Key specifications

• Thread size: 6 mm metric (M6)
• Tool type: solid machine tap for internal threads
• Intended use: machine tapping operations for metal materials
• Construction: single-piece cutting tool suitable for repeated use

How to use

Install the tap in an appropriate machine spindle, collet or tapping head that ensures axial alignment and secure clamping. Select cutting speed, feed and lubrication appropriate for the workpiece material and thread size; follow standard tap cutting parameters for M6 threads. Engage the tap with the pre-drilled hole of the correct diameter, run the machine cycle to cut the thread, and apply coolant or lubricant as needed to evacuate chips and reduce heat. After tapping, back the tool out carefully to avoid thread damage and inspect the internal thread for dimensional accuracy and surface finish.

Usage recommendations

Use a pre-drilled hole of the correct size for M6 threads, maintain proper machine alignment, and choose cutting speeds and lubricants matched to the material to achieve consistent thread form and tool life.
