EMUGE-FRANKEN USA, a leading manufacturer of high-performance taps, thread mills, end mills, drills, gages and other rotary tools, has introduced new MultiTAP™ NPT/ NPTF Pipe Taps with a universal threading geometry for both job shops and production tapping. The taps feature a specially engineered shortened projection length when compared to traditional ANSI standard taper taps, decreasing cycle time and increasing tool life, while meeting all industry standard requirements for gaging. The new taps are stocked in the U.S.A.
“We are pleased to offer energy manufacturers a versatile pipe tapping solution designed to meet and exceed even the most difficult applications for the oil, gas, and petrochemical manufacturing sectors.” said Dylan Bowles, Product Director, EMUGE-FRANKEN USA. The new taps are also well suited for food and dairy equipment, high-pressure pipe delivery systems, valves and fire suppression systems.
The MultiTAP line of NPT/ NPFT Pipe Taps offers an interrupted skip tooth thread profile that helps to reduce cutting forces and chip clogging. The new taps feature a premium HSSE base tool substrate and a proprietary TICN-PVD coating to extend tool life. The pipe taps are designed with a C-style semi-bottoming chamfer length of 2-3 teeth, as well as an enhanced flute helix angle to meet the needs of NPT (Right Hand 35° helix) and NPTF (Right Hand 15° helix) thread profiles.
