Eagle Cutting Tool MT-270-200-T-I M27.0x2.00 Hss Taper Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MT-270-200-T-I is an M27.0x2.00 high-speed steel (HSS) metric taper tap designed for cutting internal threads in metal workpieces. The taper lead eases thread engagement by distributing cutting load across the first several threads, making it well suited for through-hole applications and initial thread starting. At 0.97 pounds, it is sized for use in manual tap wrenches or machine tapping setups. HSS construction provides adequate hardness and wear resistance for tapping steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar materials in production and maintenance environments.

This tap is used in shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments where M27 metric threads must be cut or restored. The M27.0x2.00 designation reflects a 27 mm nominal diameter with a 2.00 mm thread pitch, a common coarse-pitch size in metric fastener systems. It is appropriate for general-purpose tapping in both manual and light-duty machine applications. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians are the typical end users.

Key Features

• M27.0x2.00 metric coarse-pitch thread form for standard metric fastener compatibility
• Taper lead distributes cutting load for easier thread starting in through-hole applications
• HSS construction offers hardness and wear resistance across a range of common metals
• 0.97 pound weight suitable for tap wrench or machine tapping use
• Minimum order quantity of 1, allowing single-unit procurement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard M27.0x2.00 metric taper tap for through-hole thread cutting in general metalworking applications.

Installation Notes

Tapping should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with cutting speeds, lubrication requirements, and chip-clearing practices for the workpiece material. Always secure the workpiece and align the tap perpendicular to the hole before applying torque. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped to extend tool life and reduce the risk of tap breakage. Back the tap off periodically to clear chips when tapping deeper holes.
