Roughing tap and finishing tap – how much material each removes

Division of work in the 1–2 set

The M24x2 thread is cut into the wall of a hole with a diameter of 22 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.

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 24 mm minus pitch 2 mm gives 22 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 60 mm, or 2.5 times the thread diameter (2.5 x 24 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 M24x2 screw.

M24x2 fine-thread hand taps

Hand Tap M24x2 DIN 2181/2 6H HSS is designed for cutting M24 metric fine threads with a pitch of two millimeters in structural steels and metal alloys with a tensile strength of up to eight hundred megapascals. The two-piece arrangement — a starting tap and a finishing tap — distributes torque, stabilizes machining, and helps maintain a fit in tolerance class six H.

Technical parameters: nominal diameter twenty-four millimeters; pitch two millimeters; sixty° profile according to ISO 68-1; internal thread tolerance class 6H according to ISO 965; right-hand thread; straight flutes for predictable chip evacuation. Material: high-speed steel (HSS), ground for increased durability and edge stability. The operating arrangement complies with DIN 2181/2, and the sequence of stages is supported by M24x2 Hand Tap Set. Recommended tap drill: twenty-two millimeters; using an emulsion or active cutting oil improves surface quality and extends cutting edge life.

  • Stable operation — dividing the process into starting and finishing stages dampens torque fluctuations and improves profile uniformity.
  • Cutting edge life — precision-ground high-speed steel (HSS) maintains edge sharpness and slows wear.
  • Class 6H accuracy — the manufacturing tolerance ensures successful verification with GO/NO-GO gauges.
  • Organized operation — standardized passes and dimensional inspection.

Compliance with DIN 2181/2, ISO 68-1, and ISO 965 ensures compatibility with measuring instruments. As a result, threads produced using M24x2 Hand Tap Set have a stable profile and predictable repeatability in one-off and short-run production.
