Hand tap- sets - a problem shared is a problem halved
#Teamwork
thread cutting with hand tap sets is the proven and traditional method of cutting an ideal internal thread by hand. It is easier for the user to cut straight into the hole, giving better control in the tapping process. The BAER hand taps- sets are 3-piece, manufactured to DIN 352 and are suitable for cutting British Whitworth coarse threads (also known as BSW threads). One set consists of taper tap (No. 1), intermediate Tap (No. 2) and finishing tap (No. 3). All three share the work of tapping as follows:
- Taper tap (No. 1) (1 ring on shank): Form A, chamfer: 5-6 turns, removes 65% of the thread profile
- Intermediate Tap (No. 2) (2 rings on the shank): Form D, chamfer: 3-4 threads, removes 85% of the thread profile
- Finishing tap (No. 3) (no ring on the shank): Form C, chamfer: 2-3 threads, removes 100% of the thread profile
The BAER hand taps have a square shank, manufactured according to DIN10 and are especially suitable for use in tap wrenches or holding tools. This allows you to tap internal thread by hand without jamming. The reduced force on each individual screw tap is also an advantage, as it reduces the risk of breakage. Three-part sets with pilot, centre and finishing tap (No. 3) is used for coarse thread such as M, BSW, UNC. The BAER hand taps can be used for easily machinable materials up to 900 N/mm², such as unalloyed and low-alloyed steels and cut a through-hole and blind hole up to 2xD. The advantage of multi-part hand taps is that the respective parts of a set share the cutting power: This makes it easier to cut a straight and clean thread by hand.
The advantages at a glance:
- lower force effect on each individual screw tap → lower risk of breakage
- better control during the thread-cutting process
- for use in tap wrenches or holding tools

HSS thread cutting dies - for perfect external threads
#round runs
BAER dies are used to produce external threads with a round external profile. You want to operate it by hand or by machine? Both work. These BAER dies made of high speed steel HSS are suitable for normal applications for various materials with a strength of up to 800 N/mm². These include the following materials: general structural steels, free-cutting steels, case-hardening steels, unalloyed heat-treatable steels, pure copper, low-alloyed copper and copper-tin alloy (bronze) short-chipping, as well as plastics. The symmetrical design allows cutting in both axial directions. There are holes on the outside, here you can fix the thread cutting die in the die stock and prevent it from twisting during use. The chip holes, which are holes or cavities between the cutting edges, provide the chip transport. They take up the chips, roll them and carry them away. It is important that you lubricate the tool plumbed working and with cutting oil or cutting paste. Our thread cutting dies for external threads can convince primarily with excellent quality in addition to a fair price. BAER cutting dies - for perfect external threads.
The advantages at a glance:
- little space required
- Adjustment without effort
- Use on simple and multi-spindle machines
- simple tool assembly
- Use from both sides

PRO adjustable tap wrench - custom-fit holding tools for screw tap
#fits like a glove
The PRO adjustable tap wrench is an actuating tool for screw tap made from a high-end zinc die casting body, with which internal thread can be cut by hand. The outstanding quality of the tap wrench is not only in the material, but also in the premium clamping jaws, the handles and the geometry, which make the tool extremely stable and very precise to use. The long levers on the right and left help to cut plumb into the hole and easily apply the required torque. Another advantage is the easy handling and the short changing times. A lever can be turned off on one side to be able to work in hard-to-reach situations.

PRO die stock with die guides - it doesn't get any better than this
#tool perfectionists
Our PRO die stocks are made of high-end zinc die casting. They have a very stable design and are therefore very resilient, wear-resistant and accurate. With screws you fix the die in a suitable holder and thus prevent it from twisting during use. In addition, the design allows the use of the included die guides. The PRO die guides are made of free-cutting steel with an oxidised surface. This makes them a better fit, more stable and more durable than ever before. They provide optimum guidance for cutting a plumb external thread. When using them, it is important that the holes in the guide overlap with the holes in the die to ensure chip removal.
