Centaur 200812 Tapping Adapter 13/16 in Tap CWE2

Product Description

The CENTAUR 200812 is a quick-change tapping adapter designed to hold and drive taps in CNC machining centers, tapping heads, and production drilling equipment. It accepts a 13/16-inch tap size and uses a Number 2 adapter interface. The tap shank diameter measures 0.652 inches, and the outside shank diameter is 1.22 inches. This adapter is part of the CWE2 series and is built for shops that require repeatable, efficient thread-forming operations. It is installed by machinists and tool-setup technicians in production and job-shop environments where tap changes need to be fast and consistent.

The 200812 is suited for use in vertical and horizontal machining centers and tapping machines where quick-change tooling systems are in place. It fits applications requiring a 13/16-inch tap and a Number 2 adapter seat. The CWE2 series design is appropriate for general-purpose tapping in metal fabrication and manufacturing environments. No coolant-through capability is present on this adapter, making it best suited for dry or flood-coolant setups where through-tool coolant delivery is not required.

Key Features

• Quick-change interface for fast tap swaps in production environments
• Accepts 13/16-inch tap size with a 0.652-inch tap shank diameter
• Number 2 adapter size for compatibility with CWE2 series tooling systems
• Flange diameter of 1.89 inches for secure seating in the holder

Compatibility

Designed for use with CWE2 series quick-change tapping systems that accept a Number 2 adapter interface and a 13/16-inch tap size.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed with the machine in a locked-out, de-energized state following applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Ensure the adapter seats fully and the quick-change retention mechanism is fully engaged before resuming operation. Verify tap shank diameter and adapter size match the tooling system specifications before mounting. A qualified machinist or tool-setup technician should confirm all tooling is secured prior to cycle start.
