Roughing tap and finishing tap – how much material each removes

Division of work in the 1–2 set

The M2.3x0.25 thread is cut into the wall of a hole with a diameter of 2.05 mm. The thread groove extends 0.125 mm into the wall. A single tap would have to cut the entire groove at once, requiring substantial hand torque and risking breakage. The set divides this work into two passes.

The drawing shows the entire set in operation. Both taps have the same shank and the same length. They differ in their chamfer, the tapered tip: No. 1 has a chamfer spanning 8 threads, while No. 2 spans only 2 threads. The detail windows at the hole wall show how the thread groove deepens after each tap.

How to distinguish the taps in the set

The chamfer on No. 1 is 4 times as long as the chamfer on No. 2 — the difference is immediately visible when you place them side by side. No. 1 has an incomplete thread profile; only No. 2 has the full profile. The number is also indicated on the shank: No. 1 has one ring, No. 2 has none. Keep the set together and always start with the roughing tap.

Turning sequence: half a turn clockwise, a quarter turn counterclockwise | Between taps: remove chips from the hole

Start with the hole. The drill diameter is easy to calculate: thread diameter 2.3 mm minus pitch 0.25 mm gives 2.05 mm. An undersized hole is a common cause of a tap twisting off in the workpiece.

Through hole or blind hole – how deep to drill

The set taps both types of holes. In a through hole, the thread extends through the full material thickness. In a blind hole, cut the thread to 5.75 mm, or 2.5 times the thread diameter (2.5 x 2.3 mm, shown as 2.5D in the drawing). Drill the hole deeper than the thread. The finishing tap has a chamfer spanning 2 threads, so approx. 2 incomplete threads remain near the bottom. The extra depth below the thread accommodates them along with the chips.

No. 1 – the roughing tap establishes thread alignment

Fit the roughing tap in the tap wrench and position it perpendicular to the surface. Check the angle from two sides, for example with a square. Turn half a turn clockwise, then a quarter turn counterclockwise. Reversing breaks the chip into short pieces – a slight crunch is normal. The first threads determine whether the thread will be straight.

No. 2 – the finishing tap produces the full profile

Back out the roughing tap and remove chips from the hole. Screw the finishing tap into the cut threads by hand – it should engage them on its own. Continue turning at the same rhythm as with the roughing tap. The finishing tap removes the remaining material and cuts the groove to the full profile within tolerance 6H. When it screws in smoothly all the way, the thread is complete – check it with an M2.3x0.25 screw.

M2.3x0.25 hand tap fine-thread HSS. Professional hand taps for producing metric fine threads, type M 2.3x0.25, with a 60° angle, ISO DIN-13. They can be used to tap through and blind holes in hard and difficult-to-machine materials of class P1.2 – P1.3. 3. These include metals, nonferrous metals, carbon (unalloyed) steels, nonferrous metal alloys and hard plastics. M2.3x0.25 hand taps manufactured to ISO 529. The fine-thread hand taps we offer are sold as a two-piece set containing a starter tap with a 8P chamfer and a finishing tap with a 2P chamfer. The total stock allowance is divided between the two taps. M2.3x0.25 hand taps are made of special high-speed tool steel, HSS – High Speed Steel. This type of high-alloy steel significantly increases tapping productivity and enables highly precise thread cutting. An additional advantage of the taps is their high cutting edge resistance to damage during tapping, particularly breakage and chipping.
