Eagle Cutting Tool MT-220-250-P-I M22.0x2.50 Hss Metric Plug Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MT-220-250-P-I is an M22.0x2.50 high-speed steel (HSS) metric plug tap designed for cutting internal threads in through-holes and blind holes where sufficient thread depth is available. The plug chamfer — typically 3 to 5 threads — allows the tap to start easily and cut progressively, making it the most common tap style for general-purpose threading work. At 0.97 pounds, it is sized for use in a hand tap wrench or machine tap holder. Licensed machinists, maintenance mechanics, and tool-and-die tradespeople are the primary users of this tap.

This tap is suited for threading M22.0x2.50 metric coarse threads in ferrous and non-ferrous materials across industrial, maintenance, and fabrication environments. Typical applications include threading bolt holes in structural components, machinery frames, and equipment housings where M22 fasteners are specified. The plug style is the standard starting choice when the through-hole allows full thread engagement from the entry side.

Key Features

• Compatible with standard hand tap wrenches and machine tap holders
• Minimum order quantity of 1 — available as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard M22.0x2.50 metric coarse plug tap suitable for use in any tap wrench or tapping fixture that accepts the corresponding tap shank size for this thread class.

Installation Notes

Secure the workpiece firmly before tapping and ensure the tap is started square to the hole to prevent thread runout or tap breakage. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce friction and extend tap life. When tapping blind holes, back the tap out periodically to clear chips. Follow applicable shop safety practices and machinery safety lockout procedures when using power tapping equipment.
