Unified Thread
The FT109 is a professional-grade straight flute tap specifically designed for tapping ANSI/ASME B1.1 standard Unified Threads. Its excellent chip removal performance, high hardness and wear resistance, and machining efficiency make it particularly suitable for threading high-strength, difficult-to-machine materials. Carbide straight flute taps are high-performance tapping tools combining carbide material and composite coating technology. They are widely used in efficient, high-precision thread machining, especially in scenarios involving difficult-to-machine materials and high-strength workpieces, where they offer significant advantages. They perform exceptionally well in efficient machining and complex materials. Carbide taps can easily machine difficult-to-machine materials such as stainless steel, titanium alloys, and nickel-based alloys, maintaining high efficiency and high quality.

Design details engineered for accuracy, tool life and process stability.
High-precision thread grinding ensures thread profile accuracy within ±0.01mm, and thread surface finish below Ra0.4μm, guaranteeing the precision of American standard thread connections.
Ultra-fine grain carbide substrate with a hardness of HRC65, offering 50% improved chipping resistance, suitable for tapping difficult-to-machine materials such as stainless steel and high-hardness steel.
TiAlN, TiCN, TAD, TiN, DLC, and other coatings are available, with a maximum hardness of HV3400 and a friction coefficient as low as 0.15, extending tool life by 2-3 times compared to uncoated taps.
Carbide straight flute taps hold a vital position in modern manufacturing due to their advantages such as high-quality thread formation, enhanced strength, long tool life, and chip-free machining. They are particularly advantageous in scenarios requiring high efficiency, environmental friendliness, and high precision machining.
Straight flute taps typically feature higher manufacturing precision to ensure tight tolerances and thread quality even at minute dimensions.
Carbide taps can easily machine difficult-to-machine materials such as stainless steel, titanium alloys, and nickel-based alloys, maintaining high efficiency and quality.
The high rigidity of carbide materials and the auxiliary cooling technology of internal cooling technology reduce the risk of tap breakage due to thermal fatigue or chip clogging.
Optimized cutting edge sharpness and an internal cooling system provide excellent lubrication and cooling conditions, ensuring a burr-free thread surface and high smoothness.
