It connects a tapping head or tapping attachment to the tap shank, transmitting torque during threading operations on drill presses, CNC machining centers, and tapping machines. The adapter features a tap shank diameter of 0.168 inches and a tap square size of 0.131 inches, securing the tap firmly during the cut. A projection of 0.2756 inches and a tap depth of 0.6693 inches define the working geometry. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this adapter as part of a WE 2 series quick-change tapping system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for production and job-shop environments where repeatable thread quality and fast tap changes are required. It fits applications where No. 8 taps are used to thread ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. The quick-change feature allows tap swaps without fully disassembling the tapping head setup, reducing downtime on high-volume threading runs. No coolant-through capability is present, making it appropriate for standard flood-coolant or dry-tapping setups where internal coolant delivery is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick-change design for fast tap swaps without full disassembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTap shank diameter of 0.168 inches for secure No. 8 tap retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTap square size of 0.131 inches provides positive torque drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProjection of 0.2756 inches and tap depth of 0.6693 inches for defined working reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWE 2 series compatibility for use in matching quick-change tapping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact overall length of 1.122 inches (28.50 mm) suits confined workpiece access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with WE 2 series quick-change tapping systems accepting a No. 2 adapter size.

Ensure the tapping head or machine spindle is fully stopped and de-energized before inserting or removing the adapter. Verify that the tap shank seats fully into the adapter bore and that the square drive is fully engaged before beginning a threading cycle. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures when setting up tapping attachments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Adapter Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Shank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.168 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Square Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.131 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2756 inches (7.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6693 inches (17.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28.50 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlange Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Shank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuick-Change\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: WE 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.176 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112809\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCUPRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: QA-2 #8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728742678834,"sku":"QA-2 #8","price":52.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/316f834e0e7c71ef26d56a1228ab0ed5.jpg?v=1788695704","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-qa-2-8-tapping-adapter-no-8-tap-we-2-series","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
