Eagle Cutting Tool CR975-060-D Hss Hex Nut Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL CR975-060-D is a high-speed steel (HSS) hex nut tap designed for threading hex nut blanks in production and job-shop environments. Configured as a taper chamfer style, this tap establishes threads progressively over its leading threads, reducing cutting torque and improving thread accuracy in through-hole applications. At 2.17 pounds, it is built for use in manual tapping fixtures, drill press setups, or CNC tapping operations where a full-size nut tap is required. The 15/16 inch diameter makes it suitable for larger fastener work common in heavy equipment, structural, and industrial assembly applications. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians are the primary users of this tooling.

This tap is intended for production tapping of hex nut blanks at the 15/16 inch thread size. It fits standard nut tapping machines and compatible tapping fixtures used in industrial fastener manufacturing and heavy-duty assembly shops. The taper chamfer geometry allows the tap to start cleanly and is well suited for through-hole threading where full thread engagement is required across the nut blank thickness. Domestic manufacture (USA) makes it a common choice for shops with sourcing requirements.

Key Features

• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Taper chamfer style for progressive thread cutting and reduced entry torque
• Hex nut tap profile designed specifically for through-hole nut blank threading
• 15/16 inch nominal diameter for large fastener and structural applications
• USA manufactured

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct tooling option for nut tapping machines and fixtures accepting 15/16 inch hex nut taps with a taper chamfer configuration.

Installation Notes

This tap should be installed and operated by a qualified machinist familiar with threading tooling and tapping machine operation. Secure the tap properly in the machine holder before operation and ensure the spindle is fully stopped before changing tooling. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread quality. Follow all applicable shop safety procedures when operating tapping equipment.
