Product Description

The ACCUPRO 587098 is a quick-change tapping adapter designed to connect a No. 2 tap to a compatible tap driver or machine spindle. The adapter accepts a tap shank diameter of 0.7 inches and is sized for 3/8 inch pipe taps. Quick-change functionality allows the operator to swap taps without additional tooling, reducing downtime on production and maintenance threading operations. This adapter is used by machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance trades working with threaded pipe connections on manual or CNC tapping machines.

This adapter is suited for threading 3/8 inch pipe in metalworking, plumbing fabrication, and mechanical maintenance applications. It is appropriate for use on drill presses, tapping machines, and CNC machining centers equipped with a compatible quick-change tapping system. Typical use cases include threading pipe fittings, manifold ports, and structural weldments requiring a tapered or straight pipe thread. The No. 2 adapter size is a common standard for mid-range tap sizes in production threading setups.
