The Europa Spiral Flute Threading Tap is a precision tool designed for engineers and machinists who work with metric coarse threads. Built from HSS-E with cobalt, it delivers reliable performance in demanding metalworking environments and is clearly identified by its distinctive green ring for quick setup in busy workshops.

• Thread type: Spiral Flute design for efficient chip evacuation and reduced binding during tapping, especially with tougher materials.
• Size and pitch: Metric coarse threading — M20 x 2.5 — suitable for common fastener assemblies and general-purpose threading tasks.
• Material: HSS-E (high-speed steel with cobalt) offering enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and longer tool life under production conditions.
• Marking: Distinctive green ring indicates the specialized configuration, aiding quick identification and correct usage in workflows.
• Applications: Ideal for creating clean, well-formed internal threads in metal parts, fittings, and housings across standard engineering projects.

Benefits: The Europa tap delivers consistent, accurate threads with improved tool life thanks to cobalt-enhanced HSS. Spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip clearance, reducing the risk of binding and cross-threading while maintaining thread quality through the full depth. The color-coded ring simplifies inventory and setup, helping technicians choose the right tool quickly for batch runs or single-part jobs. Use with appropriate cutting fluid and steady feeding to maximize performance and minimize rework on through-holes and blind holes alike.
