Eagle Cutting Tool MT-240-200-T-I M24.0x2.00 Metric Taper Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MT-240-200-T-I is an M24.0x2.00 high-speed steel (HSS) metric taper tap designed for cutting internal threads in metal workpieces. The taper lead geometry distributes cutting force gradually across the first several threads, making thread starting easier and reducing the risk of tap breakage during entry. At 0.97 pounds, it is a substantial hand or machine tap suited for production threading and repair work in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians reach for this tap when threading large-diameter metric holes in steel, cast iron, and aluminum.

This tap is used wherever an M24 coarse-pitch internal thread is required. Common applications include fabrication shops, industrial maintenance, and OEM production lines where metric fastener standards apply. The 2.00 mm pitch corresponds to the standard coarse thread series for 24 mm diameter fasteners, making it a go-to choice for structural and mechanical assemblies that use M24 bolts or studs. It is appropriate for both through-hole and deep blind-hole starting passes when followed by a plug or bottoming tap.

Key Features

• M24.0x2.00 metric coarse thread form for standard M24 fastener compatibility
• Taper lead design eases thread entry and reduces cutting force at start
• High-speed steel construction provides heat resistance and wear durability in metal threading applications
• Suitable for use with a tap wrench or tapping head on a drill press or milling machine
• Minimum order quantity of 1 — available as a single unit for toolroom or field use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard M24x2.00 metric taper tap for use in any application requiring an M24 coarse internal thread per ISO metric thread standards.

Installation Notes

This tap is installed by machinists and maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC rigid-tapping setup. Before tapping, drill the correct tap drill diameter for M24x2.00 threads and deburr the hole entrance to allow smooth tap engagement. Use cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Never force a tap that has stopped turning — back it off to clear chips before continuing.
