Taps? They have that!
Stronger Taps
The absence of cutting material due to the use of forming taps eliminates chip residue, and thus, the absence of chips eliminates the need for flutes, resulting in a solid, stronger tap for your application.
Longer Tap Life
Jarvis’ industry-leading forming taps last 3 to 20 times longer than cutting taps because they have no cutting edge to dull. This leads to cost savings and greater returns, which in the end equals a stronger hold and a bolstered bottom line. Both are sound business practices.
Stronger Threads
The grain flow of formed threads – as a result of form tapping – follows the contour of the thread resulting in greater thread strength.
Better Thread Gaging
Forming taps rearranges the metal in the hole to create the thread. Because no metal is cut away, the possibility of producing oversized threads is greatly reduced.
