Roughing tap and finishing tap – how much material each removes
Division of work in the 1–2 set
The M33x2 thread is cut into the wall of a hole with a diameter of 31 mm. The thread groove extends 1 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.
| Tap | Chamfer | Chamfer angle | Material removed | How it works in the hole |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No. 1 – roughing tap | long, 8 threads | 5° | the main portion of the groove | enters smoothly and establishes thread alignment |
| No. 2 – finishing tap | short, 2 threads | 20° | the remainder, to the full profile | follows the cut threads and produces the full 6H profile |
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 33 mm minus pitch 2 mm gives 31 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 82.5 mm, or 2.5 times the thread diameter (2.5 x 33 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 M33x2 screw.
M33x2 fine-thread hand taps
M33X2 Hand Tap ISO 529/2 6H HSS is designed to cut metric fine threads M33 with a pitch of two millimeters in steels up to eight hundred megapascals. In workshop machining, the two-piece M33x2 configuration ensures repeatability and a class six H fit.
Nominal diameter thirty-three millimeters, sixty° profile according to ISO 68-1, tolerances according to ISO 965 (class six H internal thread). Construction according to ISO 529/2 in a two-stage configuration: first (starter) and second (finisher), reducing torque spikes and improving axial alignment. Recommended tap drill size: thirty-one millimeters. Straight flutes support predictable chip evacuation, while ground high-speed steel (HSS) maintains edge sharpness and uniform wear; systematic identification of the taps organizes M33x2 Hand Tap Set and improves the repeatability of results.
- Process stability — the first/second sequence reduces torsional loads and improves thread root surface roughness.
- Class six H dimensional accuracy — maintaining the pitch diameter facilitates assembly of mating parts and inspection with GO and NO-GO thread ring gauges.
- Cutting edge durability — ground high-speed steel (HSS) reduces the risk of microchipping and extends the interval between sharpening.
- Standardization and consistency — M33x2 Hand Tap Set guarantees repeatability between successive passes and an organized workstation.
Compliance with ISO 529/2, ISO 68-1, and ISO 965 ensures compatibility with measuring equipment, while the M33X2 Hand Tap maintains a predictable thread profile and dimensional consistency in one-off and small-batch machining.

Frequently asked questions
The set includes two taps: a roughing tap and a finishing tap, used in sequence.
Drill to 31.0 mm (nominal diameter 33 mm minus pitch 2 mm) to achieve proper thread engagement in class 6H.
The tap performs well in low-carbon steel, aluminum, brass, and other materials with good machinability.
