Eagle Cutting Tool MT-300-200-T-I M30x2 Hss Metric Taper Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MT-300-200-T-I is an M30.0x2.00 high-speed steel (HSS) metric taper tap designed for threading operations in metal fabrication, maintenance, and repair applications. The taper ground lead eases entry into the workpiece, making it well-suited for starting threads in through-holes and blind holes with adequate depth. At 0.97 pounds, this is a full-sized tap intended for use in a tap wrench, adjustable tap handle, or machine tapping setup. HSS construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for threading mild steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar materials at standard shop cutting speeds.

This tap is used wherever M30.0x2.00 metric threads are required — common in heavy equipment repair, structural fabrication, industrial machinery maintenance, and general metalworking. The taper lead style is particularly useful when threading new holes, as it distributes cutting load gradually across the first several threads of the tap. It is appropriate for both hand tapping and low-speed machine tapping operations.

Key Features

• M30.0x2.00 metric thread form for standard coarse-pitch metric fastener compatibility
• Taper lead distributes cutting load across multiple threads for easier starting
• High-speed steel construction resists wear when threading ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• Full-sized tap at 0.97 pounds suitable for hand or machine tapping setups
• Minimum order quantity of 1 — available as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed for cutting M30.0x2.00 metric internal threads in materials compatible with HSS tooling, including mild steel, cast iron, and aluminum alloys.

Installation Notes

Tapping operations should be performed by a qualified machinist or skilled tradesperson familiar with proper thread-cutting technique. Always apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Secure the workpiece firmly before tapping and keep the tap perpendicular to the work surface to avoid thread misalignment or tap breakage. Back the tap off periodically to break chips when tapping blind holes.
