Machine tap FANAR G1/2" model D2-511101-3131 for threading G1/2" pipe threads

Machine tap FANAR G1/2" model D2-511101-3131 is designed for cutting standardized G1/2" (BSP) pipe threads in machine tapping operations. Manufactured by FANAR for use in production and repair environments, this tap produces accurate, repeatable threads for fittings, connectors and threaded pipe ends used in plumbing, HVAC and hydraulic assemblies.

Advantages

The FANAR machine tap offers precise thread geometry and consistent cutting performance when used with appropriate tapping equipment and cutting parameters. Its design supports efficient chip evacuation and reliable engagement with material, reducing the risk of thread distortion. The tool is intended for repeated industrial use and provides predictable results when matched with correct speeds, feeds and lubrication for the workpiece material.

Suitable for

• Cutting G1/2" (BSP) internal threads in pipe fittings and connectors
• Machine tapping operations in production lines and repair shops
• Plumbing, HVAC and hydraulic component assembly and maintenance
• Batch threading of metal pipe ends and threaded ports

Key specifications

• Thread standard: G1/2" (BSP) internal pipe thread
• Tool type: machine tap for use in tapping machines or power tapping heads
• Intended application: cutting internal pipe threads for fittings and connectors
• Suitable materials: common plumbing and hydraulic metals (use appropriate cutting parameters per material)
• Usage environment: production and repair workshop settings

How to use

Secure the workpiece and align the tapping machine to ensure concentric engagement with the pipe or fitting. Select appropriate speed and feed rates for the workpiece material and apply suitable cutting fluid or lubricant. Start tapping with steady, controlled feed to produce the full thread length, then withdraw the tap while reversing rotation or using the machine's retract function to break and evacuate chips. Inspect the cut thread for fit and dimensional conformance before assembly.

Usage recommendations

Use recommended cutting speeds, feeds and lubricants for the specific workpiece material; maintain correct machine alignment and verify thread fit with gauges or mating parts. Replace the tap at the first sign of wear or damaged flutes to avoid poor thread quality.
