Eagle Cutting Tool MT-360-300-P-I M36.0x3.00 Hss Plug Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MT-360-300-P-I is an M36.0x3.00 high-speed steel (HSS) metric plug tap designed for cutting internal threads in metal workpieces. The plug chamfer — typically 3 to 5 threads — allows the tap to start easily in a through-hole or a previously started blind hole, making it a standard choice for general threading work in production and maintenance environments. At 2.03 pounds, this is a substantial tool suited for large-diameter threading operations where rigidity and tool mass contribute to thread quality and cutter longevity.

This tap is used in metalworking, manufacturing, and industrial maintenance applications where M36 coarse-pitch internal threads are required. The 3.00 mm pitch corresponds to the standard ISO coarse thread series for 36 mm diameter fastener systems. Typical applications include threading large bolt holes in structural steel, heavy equipment frames, fixtures, and machine bases. It is appropriate for use in manual tapping setups or low-speed machine tapping operations on mills, drill presses, or dedicated tapping machines.

Key Features

• M36.0x3.00 metric coarse thread form per ISO standard
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Plug chamfer profile for versatile use in through-holes and partially started blind holes
• Large 36 mm diameter suitable for heavy-duty structural and industrial threading tasks
• Minimum order quantity of 1 — available as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric plug tap for use with M36x3.00 thread form applications. Compatible with manual tap wrenches and machine tapping holders sized for large-diameter taps.

Installation Notes

Thread cutting with a tap of this diameter should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling professional using appropriate cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend tool life. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured before beginning the threading operation to prevent tap breakage. Use a correctly sized tap drill — typically 33 mm for M36x3.00 — to prepare the pilot hole before tapping. Never force the tap; back off periodically to clear chips, especially in blind-hole applications.
