Eagle Cutting Tool MT-140-200-T-I Hss Metric Taper Tap M14x2

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MT-140-200-T-I is an M14 x 2.00 high-speed steel (HSS) metric taper tap designed for cutting internal threads in metal workpieces. The taper tap features a gradually tapered lead that distributes cutting load across several flutes, making it the preferred starting tap for threading new holes. With an M14 nominal diameter and 2.00 mm pitch, this tap cuts standard coarse metric threads used widely in industrial and mechanical assemblies. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians use this tap for both production threading and field repair work.

This tap is suited for threading ferrous and non-ferrous metals in general manufacturing, maintenance, and repair applications. The M14 x 2.00 thread form is a standard ISO metric coarse-pitch specification, making it common in automotive, structural, and heavy equipment contexts. It is used in hand-tapping operations as well as low-speed machine tapping setups. The taper configuration is especially useful when starting a thread in a through-hole or when working in harder materials that benefit from a gradual cutting entry.

Key Features

• M14 x 2.00 ISO metric coarse-pitch thread form
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a range of metals
• Taper lead design distributes cutting force for easier thread starting
• Suitable for hand tapping and low-speed machine tapping
• Standard metric sizing for broad industrial compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or working tap for M14 x 2.00 metric coarse-thread applications in general industrial and maintenance settings.

Installation Notes

Secure the workpiece firmly before tapping and use a calibrated tap wrench or tapping attachment to maintain axial alignment. Apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Back the tap off periodically to break chips and prevent binding, especially in blind holes. Follow applicable shop safety practices and ensure the correct pilot hole diameter is drilled per ISO metric tap drill charts before beginning the threading operation.
