It accepts taps ranging from M3 to M12 (up to 9\/16 inch) and features a quick-change design that reduces tool change time at the spindle. Projection measures 2.835 inches, placing the tap at a consistent working distance from the spindle face. Through-coolant capability directs coolant directly to the cutting zone, supporting longer tap life and chip evacuation in blind and through-hole applications. This chuck is intended for use by machinists and CNC toolroom professionals in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tapping chuck is suited for rigid tapping operations on vertical and horizontal machining centers equipped with a BT40 spindle taper. The Size 1 tap adapter accommodates the specified M3 to M12 tap range, making it appropriate for general-purpose thread-cutting in steel, aluminum, and similar materials. Through-coolant support makes it a practical choice for high-volume production tapping where heat and chip buildup are concerns. The quick-change interface allows adapters to be swapped without removing the chuck body from the spindle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRigid tapping style for synchronized CNC tapping cycles without floating compensation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBT40 taper shank for direct mounting to BT40 spindle interfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM3 to M12 tap capacity (up to 9\/16 inch) via Size 1 adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.835-inch projection from gauge line to nose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrough-coolant compatible for directed coolant delivery to the cutting zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick-change design for fast adapter swaps at the machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNose diameter of 1.2598 inches (32.00 mm) with a 19.00 mm through-hole diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with BT40 spindle taper machining centers.
