Where chips remain in a straight-flute tap

The flute holds the chips until the tap is reversed out

The straight flute runs parallel to the tap axis. There is no helix to carry chips upward. The chamfer cutting edges are not ground at an angle, so they do not push chips downward. Short chips break into fragments and remain in the flute, next to the cutting edges that produced them. They leave the hole only when the tap is backed out. The M15 x2 tap has a reduced shank to DIN 376: diameter 10 mm, square size 9 mm.

M15 INOX machine tap – a tool for precision tapping

The M15 INOX machine tap is a professional tool for cutting internal M15 threads in stainless, structural, and alloy steels. Its HSSE high-speed steel construction with 5% cobalt provides a hardness of 66 HRC and high resistance to temperatures in the cutting zone up to 650°C. Form C with straight flutes enables tapping of both through and blind holes without changing tools. The 6H tolerance in accordance with DIN 376 guarantees dimensional repeatability and full interchangeability with threads produced by other tools of this class. The Fra M15 HSSE machine tap is intended for toolrooms and CNC machining center operators.

Key advantages of the Fra M15 INOX tap

  • Durability and heat resistance thanks to HSSE steel with 5% cobalt, which retains its cutting properties at temperatures up to 650°C in the contact zone with the workpiece material
  • Precision to tolerance class 6H according to DIN 376 ensures the dimensional accuracy required in series production of mechanical components and threaded connections
  • Compliance with DIN 376 confirms standardized long-shank dimensions and full compatibility with European toolholding systems
  • Material versatility covering austenitic stainless steels 304 and 316, structural steels up to 800 MPa, aluminum, and GGG40 ductile cast iron
  • Compatibility with ER25 holders and tapping chucks with axial compensation for synchronous tapping on CNC and conventional machines
  • Suitable for through holes and blind holes thanks to form C with straight flutes, which ensures proper chip evacuation in both hole types

The M15 general-purpose machine tap is used in automotive series production and on assembly lines requiring high repeatability. The M15 machine tap for through holes and blind holes is compatible with ER25 holders and collets. The tap drill diameter for the M15 thread is 13 mm for a coarse thread with a pitch of 2 mm.

Frequently asked questions

With proper cooling and lubrication, the M15 HSSE tap produces 400-600 threads in structural steel or 250-350 threads in stainless steel. Dry machining reduces tool life by 40-50%.

Yes, the M15 HSSE tap with 5% cobalt is designed for austenitic stainless steels 304 and 316. The cobalt addition increases heat resistance up to 650°C in the cutting zone.

An HSSE tap contains 5% cobalt, which increases hardness from 64 to 66 HRC and heat resistance to 650°C. HSSE is suitable for stainless steels, while HSS is suitable only for structural steels up to 800 MPa.
