Emuge-Franken USA’s MultiTap NPT/NPTF pipe taps feature universal threading geometry for both job shops and production tapping. The taps feature a specialized, shortened projection length when compared to traditional ANSI standard taper taps, decreasing cycle time and increasing tool life, while meeting all industry standard requirements for gaging.
The MultiTAP line of NPT/ NPFT pipe taps provide an interrupted skip tooth thread profile that helps to reduce cutting forces and chip clogging. The taps feature a premium HSSE base tool substrate and a TiCN physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating to extend tool life. The pipe taps are designed with a C-style semibottoming chamfer length of two-to-three teeth, as well as an enhanced flute helix angle to meet the needs of NPT (righthand 35-degree helix) and NPTF (righthand 15-degree helix) thread profiles.
“We are pleased to offer energy manufacturers a versatile pipe tapping solution designed to meet and exceed even the most difficult applications for the oil, gas and petrochemical manufacturing sectors,” says Dylan Bowles, product director, Emuge-Franken USA. The taps are also well suited for food and dairy equipment, high-pressure pipe delivery systems, valves and fire suppression systems.
