Eagle Cutting Tool CR975-048-I Hss Hex Nut Tap 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL CR975-048-I is a 3/4 inch high-speed steel (HSS) hex nut tap with a taper chamfer, designed for threading hex nuts and other through-hole applications. This is an import-grade tap intended for production and maintenance threading operations where a tapered lead eases entry and alignment into the workpiece. The hex shank configuration is suited for use with standard nut-tapping equipment and machines. At 0.58 pounds, it is a compact, shop-ready tool for machinists and trade professionals handling threaded fastener production or repair work.

Hex nut taps are used in manufacturing, maintenance, and repair environments where threaded hex nuts are produced or rethreaded at volume. The taper chamfer on this tap provides a gradual cutting entry, reducing the torque required to start the thread. This makes it well suited for machine tapping operations on hex nut blanks in steel, iron, and similar ferrous materials. It is commonly used in shops, maintenance facilities, and field repair applications where 3/4 inch threaded components require precise, consistent internal threads.

Key Features

• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across ferrous materials
• Taper chamfer lead for smooth thread entry and reduced starting torque
• Hex shank design compatible with standard nut-tapping equipment
• 3/4 inch nominal size for threading standard 3/4 inch hex nuts
• Import-grade tool suitable for production and general maintenance use

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or production tap for 3/4 inch hex nut tapping operations using standard nut-tapping machines and equipment that accept hex shank taps.

Installation Notes

This tap is installed and operated by machinists or tool-and-die professionals using compatible nut-tapping machines or manual tapping equipment. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and that cutting fluid appropriate for the material being tapped is applied to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Inspect the tap for wear or damage before each use and replace if cutting edges are dull or chipped to avoid thread damage or tap breakage.
