How the type B through-hole chamfer pushes chips down the hole
Chips exit at the bottom instead of returning through the thread
The type B through-hole chamfer has a chip breaker at the tip of the tap – an angled notch in the cutting edges. The chip breaker directs chips down the hole, ahead of the tap tip. The chips curl into a spring shape, break into short pieces and exit the hole on the other side of the workpiece. The threads already cut remain clean because the chips do not pass through them on their way up. The M4 x0.7 tap has a reduced shank to DIN 376: diameter 2.8 mm, square size 2.1 mm.
M4 machine tap for through holes – HSSE with DIN 376 long shank
The M4 machine tap for through holes from the HSSE series is designed for cutting internal M4 threads in holes requiring increased clamping rigidity and better tool guidance. The long shank according to DIN 376 minimizes tool runout and improves thread quality in the popular M4 size. Its high-speed steel construction with 5% cobalt provides a hardness of 65-67 HRC and high heat resistance in the cutting zone up to 650°C.
Key features of the M4 machine tap with a long shank
- Long shank to DIN 376 provides greater clamping rigidity and improved tool guidance, which is essential when tapping deep holes and operating at high speeds
- HSSE steel with 5% cobalt guarantees a hardness of 65-67 HRC and thermal resistance up to 650°C, extending cutting edge life under intensive use
- Manufacturing precision to 6H tolerance guarantees dimensional repeatability and full thread interchangeability in series production
- Compatibility with ER16 and ER20 tool holders and tapping heads for CNC machining centers with synchronous tapping
- Designed for austenitic stainless steels 304/316 and ferritic stainless steels that require increased tool heat resistance
- Metric pitch of 0.7 mm in accordance with DIN 13 for M4 coarse threads, with a recommended tap drill diameter of 3.3 mm
The M4 machine tap with a long shank performs well in maintenance departments for thread restoration and repairs, and in toolrooms for producing precision components. Form B with straight flutes directs chips forward when tapping through holes. Cooling with an emulsion containing EP additives at a concentration of 8-10% is recommended.

Frequently asked questions
DIN 371 specifies a short shank, while DIN 376 specifies a long shank. The long shank provides greater clamping rigidity and improved tool guidance, which is recommended for deep tapping on CNC centers.
The M4 DIN 376 tap requires tool holders with sufficient clamping depth for its long shank. It is compatible with ER16 and ER20 tool holders and tapping chucks with axial compensation.
The M4 DIN 376 tap with a long shank is recommended for tapping deep holes, high-speed operation on CNC centers and applications requiring minimal tool runout.
