Accupro QA-2 M10 Tapping Adapter M10 Tap We 2 Series

Product Description

The ACCUPRO QA-2 M10 is a quick-change tapping adapter designed to hold M10 taps in compatible tapping heads and CNC or manual tapping setups. It features a 10 mm tap shank diameter and an 8 mm tap square size, conforming to DIN 371 standards. The adapter has an overall length of 46 mm, a projection of 11 mm, and a tap depth of 30 mm. The 48 mm flange diameter and 31 mm outside shank diameter provide secure, repeatable seating. Machinists and toolroom professionals use this adapter to reduce tap changeover time and maintain consistent alignment during threaded-hole operations.

This adapter is suited for production machining environments where quick tap changes are required. The WE 2 Series designation identifies the adapter size class, making it compatible with WE 2 standard tapping chucks and heads. Typical applications include tapping M10 threads in steel, aluminum, and similar materials in job shop, production floor, and toolroom settings. The quick-change design eliminates the need to remove the entire chuck body during tap swaps, supporting efficient multi-tap operations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Ensure the tapping head or chuck is fully stopped and de-energized before inserting or removing the adapter. Verify that the tap shank diameter and square size match the adapter before seating to avoid damage to the quick-change mechanism. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures during setup.
