Hand Tap FANAR DIN-376C R40 HSSE TiN 800x M14 (MPN D2-513X01-0140)

FANAR hand tap DIN-376C R40 HSSE TiN 800x M14 is a manually operated tap designed to cut ISO metric M14 threads in through and blind holes. Made from high-speed steel with cobalt (HSSE) and finished with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, this tap follows DIN-376C geometry for general-purpose right-hand threading. Its construction combines wear resistance and edge stability for workshop and maintenance threading tasks where manual control and reliable thread quality are required.

Advantages

The HSSE material increases hot hardness and toughness compared with conventional high-speed steels, while the TiN coating reduces friction and improves tool life in interrupted and continuous cuts. DIN-376C geometry provides a balanced chamfer for both through and blind hole tapping, promoting consistent thread form and reduced insertion torque. The tool is suitable for manual use and offers repeatable thread quality when used with appropriate tapping technique and lubrication.

Suitable for

• Cutting ISO metric M14 internal threads in steels and non-ferrous metals
• Manual threading operations in workshops and maintenance
• Tapping through holes and blind holes with conventional drill setups
• Repairing or rethreading worn internal threads in assemblies

Key specifications

• Thread size: M14 (ISO metric)
• Standard geometry: DIN-376C (right-hand, through and blind hole chamfer)
• Material: HSSE (high-speed steel with cobalt)
• Coating: TiN (titanium nitride) for reduced friction and improved wear resistance
• Application method: manual hand tap
• Cutting direction: right-hand

How to use

Select the correct drill size for the M14 tap and prepare the hole with proper alignment. Secure the workpiece to prevent movement, apply an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material, and use a tap wrench to start cutting at low torque. Maintain steady, straight pressure and advance the tap with controlled rotation; periodically reverse the tap slightly to break chips and clear the flute. For blind holes, leave adequate chip space and back off frequently to prevent chip packing. Inspect the resulting thread for full engagement and correct form before final assembly.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate cutting lubricants for the specific metal being tapped, avoid excessive axial force, and replace the tool if wear or chipping is visible to maintain thread quality and reduce the risk of tap breakage.
