Eagle Cutting Tool MT-270-200-P-I M27.0x2.00 Metric Plug Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MT-270-200-P-I is an M27.0x2.00 high-speed steel (HSS) metric plug tap designed for cutting internal threads in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 27mm nominal diameter and 2.00mm thread pitch, this plug tap is suited for through-hole and moderate-depth blind-hole threading applications. The plug chamfer — typically 3 to 5 threads — eases entry and distributes cutting load across multiple flutes, reducing breakage risk in production and maintenance settings. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance professionals turn to this size for larger fastener applications in structural and mechanical assemblies.

This tap is used in machine shop production, maintenance and repair operations (MRO), and field fabrication where M27 threaded connections are required. Typical applications include threading bores in steel plate, cast iron, aluminum, and other machinable metals for bolted assemblies, equipment frames, and mechanical fixtures. It is well suited for use in manual tapping, drill press setups, and CNC tapping operations with appropriate toolholding.

Key Features

• M27.0x2.00 metric thread profile for standard ISO metric fastener compatibility
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction provides heat and wear resistance during cutting
• Plug chamfer style balances cutting ease with versatility across through-hole and blind-hole applications
• Suitable for use with manual tap wrenches, tapping heads, and CNC toolholders
• Minimum order quantity of 1 — available as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ISO metric plug tap for use wherever an M27x2.00 internal thread is required. Compatible with standard tap wrenches, tapping heads, and toolholders sized for the MT-270-200-P-I shank dimensions.

Installation Notes

Tapping should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with proper speeds, feeds, and cutting fluid selection for the workpiece material. Always secure the workpiece and use an appropriate cutting or tapping fluid to extend tool life and improve thread quality. For blind holes, clear chips frequently to prevent tap binding and breakage. Follow applicable shop safety practices and equipment manufacturer guidelines when operating tapping machinery.
