Description

Another member of the highly popular “Shark Line” range of taps from Dormer, the E255 machine taps for metric coarse threads have a colored red ring on the shank. The red ring tells you it is a “Red Shark” tap, ideal for tapping high alloy steels like tool steels. The spiral point design makes the E255 good for threading holes all the way through the workpiece. With a bright finish to prevent workpiece material from sticking to the edge of the cutting tool, so producing a more accurate thread, and manufactured from powder metal High Speed cobalt to ensure a superior performance and longer tool life, the E255 “Red Shark” from Dormer is a good choice to make.
