It accepts a Number 0 tap adapter size with a tap shank diameter of 0.255 inches, making it suitable for light-duty tapping operations on drill presses, CNC machines, and tapping arms. The outside shank diameter measures 0.510 inches and the flange diameter is 0.870 inches. Tap depth reaches 0.870 inches. This adapter belongs to the CWE0 series and does not include coolant-through capability. It is sold individually and is the standard choice for machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with small-diameter taps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 000250 tapping adapter is used in machine shop environments where repeatable, quick-change tap loading is required. It is well suited for production tapping operations involving small fastener threads, particularly where a Number 0 tap must be driven consistently at controlled depth. Typical applications include light-gauge metal fabrication, precision component manufacturing, and fixture assembly where small-diameter internal threads are machined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick-change design allows fast tap swaps without full spindle teardown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTap size: 1\/4 inch with Number 0 tap adapter size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTap shank diameter: 0.255 inches for secure chuck engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside shank diameter: 0.510 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlange diameter: 0.870 inches for positive seating against holder face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTap depth: 0.870 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through — suited for dry or flood-external coolant setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with CWE0 series tap holders that accept a Number 0 tap adapter size and a 0.255 inch tap shank diameter.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and locked out before inserting or removing the adapter. Verify that the tap shank diameter and adapter size match the holder specification before seating the adapter. Do not force the adapter into a mismatched holder, as this can damage the shank seating surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Adapter Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: Number 0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Shank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.255 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Shank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.510 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlange Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.870 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.870 inches\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: CWE0\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: CENTAUR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 000250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CENTAUR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558749536562,"sku":"000250","price":38.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/53abc3076345368fc9f7c3d1ff78d9f1.jpg?v=1786419557","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/centaur-000250-tapping-adapter-1-4-inch-series-cwe0","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
