FANAR drill tap WYGNIATAK M6 DIN 371-C 6HX HSSE-PM WGN TIN, model C4-923005-0060

The FANAR drill tap WYGNIATAK M6 DIN 371-C 6HX HSSE-PM WGN TiN (model C4-923005-0060) is a combined drilling and tapping tool designed to produce M6 metric threads in one operation. It conforms to DIN 371-C form, with a 6HX tolerance tooth form to ensure thread fit and functional engagement. Manufactured from powdered high-speed steel (HSSE-PM) and finished with a tungsten nitride (TiN) coating on the working surfaces, the tool is intended for general machining applications where wear resistance and consistent thread geometry are required.

Advantages

The HSSE-PM substrate provides improved strength and wear resistance compared with conventional high-speed steels, while the TiN coating reduces friction and enhances surface hardness for extended tool life. The combined drill-and-tap geometry saves cycle time by eliminating a separate drilling or tapping operation. The DIN 371-C design with 6HX tooth form supports reliable thread engagement and repeatable results across multiple parts. The tool is suitable for use in standard drilling and tapping machines as well as CNC machining centers when set up for combined operations.

Suitable for

• Tapping M6 metric threads in through holes
• Tapping M6 metric threads in blind holes when tool overtravel and coolant strategy are adjusted
• Production environments requiring single-operation drilling and threading
• General machining of steel and non-ferrous materials where HSSE-PM and TiN performance is appropriate

Key specifications

• Thread size: M6 metric
• Design standard: DIN 371-C form
• Tooth form/tolerance: 6HX
• Material: powdered high-speed steel (HSSE-PM)
• Surface finish: tungsten nitride (TiN) coating
• Tool type: combined drill and tap (single-operation)

How to use

Mount the drill tap in a suitable tool holder or collet with secure clamping and verify concentricity. Program or set the machine for the correct drilling and tapping speeds and feeds for the workpiece material, taking into account HSSE-PM tooling and the presence of TiN coating. For through holes, ensure appropriate coolant flow and chip evacuation. For blind holes, control depth and retract strategy to avoid bottoming and chip packing. Use moderate axial feed and avoid excessive torque; stop and inspect threads after initial parts to confirm fit and adjust parameters if necessary.

Usage recommendations

Use cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material and maintain steady coolant to improve chip removal and prolong tool life. For hardened or abrasive materials, consider reducing speeds and increasing feed incrementally while monitoring tool wear. Inspect tool edges for coating wear and recoat or replace when dimensional or surface quality degrades.
