Features / Benefits
Recoil taps differ from standard taps dimensionally and only Recoil Screw Thread Insert (STI) Taps are suitable for use with Recoil Wire Thread Inserts
Recoil taps are manufactured to precise standards from High Speed Steel (HSS) with ground threads and have a larger diameter but the same pitch as a standard tap in order to accommodate the wire insert
Recoil hand taps are available with taper, intermediate, and bottoming leads
Taper (or Roughing Taps) are used for starting precision and difficult holes. This tap has a lead of eight threads, but no size reduction
Intermediate (or Plug/Second), used in most general purpose applications to facilitate thread cutting true to the drilled hole. The tap has a lead of four threads, but no size reduction
Bottoming Taps are used to ensure the minimum thread runout when tapping to the bottom of blind holes. The tap has a lead of two threads and would normally be preceded by a taper or an intermediate tap
