BAER UNiTap HSSE-TiAlN Machine Tap 40° RSP - M 2 x 0.4 - DIN 371
UNiTap - Universal High-End machine tap
A real revolution in tapping!
Our UniTap machine taps are powerful and reliable taps for efficient machining in one step with the machine. Especially in workshops and industrial production with changing requirements, UniTap machine taps are used. Since only one tool is needed for all applications and these do not have to be changed while the dimensions remain the same, there are enormous cost savings here.
They can be used in CNC machines, thread cutting machines, cordless drilling machines and pneumatic tapping arms, among others. As they are characterised by high efficiency and low production costs, they are often used in series production. The thread is cut by machine in one operation. Thus, although the UNiTap tap can basically be compared to universal short machine taps, it is designed for use with the machine.
The screw tap has a reinforced shank according to DIN 371, which means that the shank diameter is larger than the thread itself. This makes the screw tap run more stably. However, it limits the thread length that can be cut with it. It can be used for blind holes because the short chamfer and the spiral flutes ensure that the chip is discharged backwards out of the hole.
Every material shows individual chip behaviour. Therefore, screw taps must have the correct rake angle and - for even better results - a specially treated surface. This is the only way to achieve a good chip transport and to produce a thread that holds the gauge.
The high quality of the cobalt-alloyed HSSE steel we use ensures that our tools are extremely durable and robust. Due to special hardening processes and repeated tempering the hardness structure is very homogeneous, which forms the ideal basis for a genuine BAER screw taps. This increases the toughness and stability of the screw taps, allowing them to remain in use for longer.
The TiAlN coating is more resistant to friction and heat and therefore offers performance advantages at high temperatures, few cooling options (such as with small dimensions and deep holes) and faster cutting speeds (more than 60 m/min). TiAlN also has advantages when machining poorly machinable and wearable materials and can also be used dry to a limited extent. Recoating of TiAlN tools is possible up to 5 times without removing the old coating.
