S-XPF OIL-S-XPF PRODUCT INFORMATION X Performer Forming Taps ! Exceptional performance in alloy steels, forged steels, and hardened steels up to 35 HRC ! Long tool life is possible in carbon and alloy steels, as there are no problems with chips typically found with cutting taps. This is particularly effective for machining steel forgings for automotive applications. The use of special threading reduces tapping torque and heat generation, which creates stable, long tool life even when using water-soluble cutting fluid. Stable tapping performance can be achieved thanks to the high wear resistance and toughness of the cobalt HSS substrate. The excellent wear resistance and anti-welding properties of the V coating provide the S-XPF with stable tool life.

1. Only M6 shanks have a male center. 2. The proper drill hole size may change due to work material. Use the recommended drill hole size as a benchmark. 3. As the hole diameter may vary by behavior of plasticity depending on the material, hardness and shapes of workpiece, the hole diameter should be determined through trial tapping prior to final machining. 4. The drill hole size is for a 6H internal thread. 5. TAP Limit does not guarantee thread limit for the internal thread after tapping. 1. The proper drill hole size may change due to work material. Use the recommended drill hole size as...

Instructions for use S-XPF & OIL-S-XPF. 1. Check the forming condition in the same way as for conventional nu-roll taps. 2. Highly lubricating water soluble or non-water soluble coolants are recommended. 3. Use machines and toolholders with minimum runout. 4. Cutting conditions may change depending on the strength of the work material, machines, and toolholders. 5. The formed thread has a small slit at the crest. Applications for use S-XPF & OIL-S-XPF. * 1 Please use a cutting fluid with high lubricity. Work Material Tapping Speed Ideal ◎ iGood O ' • Unit:mm 1. The proper drill hole size...
