BSPT Bottoming Hand Taps are designed for cutting accurate British Standard Pipe Taper (BSPT) internal threads in applications requiring full thread depth, particularly in blind holes. The bottoming design features a short lead to allow threading close to the bottom of a hole after initial tapping operations. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) for durability and reliable cutting performance, BSPT hand taps are ideal for engineering, plumbing, hydraulic, fabrication, maintenance and workshop applications. Suitable for threading materials including mild steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, brass and other machinable metals.
