Dormer Pramet taps for maintenance, repair and overhaul

Dormer Pramet has developed 10 new lines of machine taps, specifically targeting maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) operations.

Suitable for use in hand-held or portable machines, the Dormer brand tools are manufactured from high speed steel (HSS) to provide a good level of hardness, toughness and tool life.

Available in metric, metric fine and BSP thread forms in straight flute, spiral point and spiral flute geometries, they deliver a variety of options for both blind and through-hole applications in a wide range of workpiece materials.

Straight flute taps (E784, E781 and E787) are suitable for threading cast irons up to 1.5xD in blind and through-hole applications; spiral point taps (E785, E782 and E788) are for through-hole threading up to 2.5xD; and spiral flute taps (E786, E783 and E789) are for blind hole threading up to 2.5xD.

To support the launch, Dormer Pramet has developed three new six-piece tap sets in metric threadform, covering the straight flute, spiral point and spiral flute geometries.
