It accepts a tap shank diameter of 0.381 inches and a tap square size of 0.286 inches, providing a secure, accurate drive connection. The adapter features through-coolant capability, allowing coolant delivery directly to the cutting zone to reduce heat and extend tap life. With a projection of 0.276 inches and a tap depth of 0.512 inches, it is engineered for compact, precise tap positioning. Machinists and toolroom professionals install this adapter in CNC machining centers and tapping machines where quick-change tooling systems are used.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tapping adapter is suited for production and job-shop environments running 3\/8 inch taps on vertical machining centers, drill-tap machines, or dedicated tapping heads. The quick-change design reduces setup time between tap changes, making it practical for high-mix or high-volume tapping operations. It is part of the WE 1 KP series, with an overall length of 25.50 mm and a flange diameter of 30.00 mm, fitting the standard WE 1 KP quick-change system interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 3\/8 inch tap size with 0.381 inch tap shank diameter and 0.286 inch tap square size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrough-coolant design directs coolant to the cutting edge for improved chip evacuation and heat control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick-change interface reduces tap changeover time in production environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProjection of 0.276 inches supports precise tap positioning in tight-clearance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart of the WE 1 KP series for compatibility with matching quick-change tapping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.176 pounds for minimal spindle load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with the WE 1 KP quick-change tapping system series, accepting taps with a 3\/8 inch tap size, Adapter Size 1 designation, 0.381 inch shank diameter, and 0.286 inch square size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with quick-change tapping systems. Power down and de-energize the machine spindle before mounting or removing the adapter. Verify that the tap shank diameter and square size match the adapter specifications before seating the tap.
