UNF American Thread Taps
The HP101 is a professional-grade forming tap specifically designed for chipless tapping of ANSI/ASME B1.1 standard threads (typically used for machining small-diameter threads according to UN standards). Its advantages lie primarily in its adaptability, machining accuracy, and reliability, particularly excelling in the production of small parts and precision machining. Small-diameter US standard thread taps, with their high precision, high reliability, and high adaptability, are widely used in demanding scenarios involving the machining of fine threads. Whether for complex workpieces or automated machining, they effectively improve machining efficiency and quality, making them an indispensable tool in modern manufacturing. They perform exceptionally well in high-efficiency machining and with complex materials. Because there is no cutting process, the threads produced by forming taps are burr-free, making them suitable for workpieces requiring high surface quality.

Design details engineered for accuracy, tool life and process stability.
Grinded using a high-precision thread grinder, the thread profile accuracy is controlled within ±0.01mm, the thread surface finish can reach below Ra0.2μm, and the thread connection strength is 20% higher than that of cutting taps.
Ultra-fine grain carbide substrate, hardness HRC65, 50% improved resistance to chipping, suitable for tapping difficult-to-machine plastic materials such as stainless steel and high-hardness steel.
TiAlN, TiCN, TAD, TiN, DLC, etc., coatings with a maximum hardness of HV3400, a friction coefficient as low as 0.15, and tool life 2-3 times longer than uncoated taps.
Threads are formed by plastic deformation of the workpiece material through extrusion, generating no chips and avoiding chip clogging and workpiece scratches. This is especially suitable for tapping blind holes.
A 15° extrusion cone angle achieves progressive plastic deformation, reducing the risk of material cracking and meeting the chip-free tapping requirements of ductile materials.
The tooth tip radius is precisely controlled at 0.01mm, balancing extrusion efficiency and wear resistance, and reducing tooth tip chipping.
Forming 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.
Extrusion tapping produces no cutting waste, reducing environmental impact and making it more environmentally friendly.
