Built to DIN 376 standards, it accepts a 12 mm tap shank diameter and a 9 mm tap square, providing a secure, repeatable drive connection during tapping operations. The adapter features an overall length of 46 mm (approximately 1.81 inches) and a flange diameter of 48 mm (approximately 1.89 inches), with a projection of 11 mm (0.4331 inches) and a tap depth of 30 mm (1.1811 inches). Machinists and toolroom technicians install this adapter in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and tapping machines where fast tool changes and accurate tap alignment are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for use in both job shop and production environments where M16 threading operations are performed on steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other machinable materials. It fits into the Series WE 2 quick-change system, making it compatible with standard WE 2 tapping heads. The quick-change design reduces changeover time between tap sizes, supporting high-volume threading workflows. Coolant-through capability is not supported by this adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to DIN 376 standard for consistent tap drive geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick-change interface for fast tap replacement without removing the holder from the spindle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccepts 12 mm tap shank diameter and 9 mm tap square size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTap depth of 30 mm (1.1811 inches) accommodates standard M16 tap shanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside shank diameter of 31 mm for secure retention in WE 2 tapping heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually as a single-unit package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Series WE 2 quick-change tapping systems and M16 tap sizes conforming to DIN 376 shank specifications.\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. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and all energy sources are locked out before inserting or removing the adapter. Verify that the tap shank diameter and square size match the adapter specifications before assembly. Follow the tapping head manufacturer guidelines for proper engagement and retention of the adapter in the quick-change collet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdapter Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: WE 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Shank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Square Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11 mm (0.4331 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 mm (1.1811 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlange Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Shank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDIN Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN 376\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.66 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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 M16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51747280781618,"sku":"QA-2 M16","price":52.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/66ef634841cdc15746f4d666b9ff2f23.jpg?v=1788878591","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-qa-2-m16-tapping-adapter-m16-tap-series-we-2","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
