Tap FANAR WYGNIATAK M10 DIN-371C (6HX) SR HSSE-PM WGN TIN

Thread tap FANAR WYGNIATAK M10 DIN-371C (6HX) SR HSSE-PM WGN TIN is designed for cutting internal M10 threads with accuracy and repeatability. Manufactured according to DIN-371C form and 6HX tolerance class, this tap is made from HSSE-PM high-speed steel produced by powder metallurgy and finished with a WGN TIN coating to improve wear resistance and reduce friction. It is suitable for both manual and machine tapping in a range of metals and alloys used in maintenance, repair and precision workshop work.

Advantages

The HSSE-PM material offers high hot hardness and toughness for prolonged tool life under intermittent cutting conditions. The WGN TIN coating reduces adhesion of chips and improves sliding properties, which helps to extend tool life and maintain consistent thread quality. Compliance with DIN-371C geometry and 6HX tolerance ensures compatibility with standardized fasteners and predictable thread fit. The tap's SR (short runout) design facilitates use in both hand-held tapping tools and machine holders.

Suitable for

• Cutting M10 internal threads in steel and cast iron
• Tapping into non-ferrous alloys and stainless steels with appropriate coolant
• Maintenance and repair operations in workshops and service centres
• Precision assembly and prototype manufacturing requiring standardized thread forms

Key specifications

• Thread size: M10
• Thread form: DIN-371C
• Tolerance: 6HX
• Material: HSSE-PM (powder metallurgy high-speed steel)
• Coating: WGN TIN (titanium nitride finish)
• Flute/runout style: SR (short)
• Application: manual and machine tapping in metals and alloys

How to use

Secure the workpiece and ensure the hole is pre-drilled to the recommended size for M10 threads. Use appropriate clamping to prevent movement and align the tap perpendicular to the workpiece surface. For manual tapping, use a proper tap wrench; for machine tapping, use an appropriate tapping holder or spindle speed and feed settings recommended for the material. Apply suitable cutting fluid or coolant to reduce heat and improve chip evacuation. Reverse the tap periodically to break chips and clear flutes when cutting deeper threads.

Usage recommendations

Choose a pre-drill size matched to M10 internal threads and select cutting parameters based on the workpiece material. For stainless steels and tough alloys use lower speeds and stronger coolant; for non-ferrous materials increase feed slightly while ensuring good chip evacuation. Inspect threads after tapping and remove burrs if necessary. Replace the tap when wear degrades thread quality or when coating is visibly compromised.
