Metric Fine Intermediate Hand Taps are designed for accurately cutting metric fine internal threads during hand tapping operations. Also known as second taps, intermediate hand taps are used after a taper tap to progressively form precise threads while reducing cutting resistance and improving thread quality. Manufactured from high-quality HSS for durability and long tool life, these taps are ideal for engineering, manufacturing, automotive, fabrication, maintenance and general workshop applications. Suitable for threading mild steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass and other machinable materials, they provide reliable performance for both new thread production and thread repair.
