Eagle Cutting Tool HT-7500-16-T-I 3/4-16 Hss Taper Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL HT-7500-16-T-I is a 3/4-16 high-speed steel (HSS) hand taper tap designed for cutting internal threads in metal workpieces. The taper tap features a gradual thread lead that distributes cutting force across multiple teeth, making it well suited for starting threads in through-holes and blind holes alike. Weighing 0.31 pounds, this import-grade tap delivers reliable thread-cutting performance for machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians who need accurate UNF threads in steel, cast iron, and similar materials.

This tap is intended for use in hand-tapping operations where a standard 3/4-16 UNF internal thread is required. It is applicable in general metalworking, fabrication shops, and field maintenance settings. The taper lead makes it especially practical when starting a tap square to the workpiece is critical, and it pairs with a standard tap wrench or T-handle for manual operation across a range of industrial and mechanical repair applications.

Key Features

• 3/4-16 UNF thread form for fine-pitch internal thread cutting
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability and heat resistance during cutting
• Taper lead distributes cutting load across multiple teeth for easier thread starting
• Lightweight at 0.31 pounds for comfortable hand use
• Compatible with standard tap wrenches and T-handle drivers

Compatibility

Designed as a hand taper tap for use in any application requiring a 3/4-16 UNF internal thread in metal substrates.

Installation Notes

This tap is installed by a machinist or maintenance technician using a tap wrench or T-handle. Always ensure the workpiece is securely clamped and the correct drill size has been used to prepare the pilot hole before tapping. Apply cutting fluid to reduce friction and prolong tool life. Do not force the tap if resistance increases sharply, as this can cause breakage.
