Eagle Cutting Tool PT-10000-115-I Hss Npt Pipe Tap

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL PT-10000-115-I is a high-speed steel (HSS) NPT pipe tap sized for 1-inch pipe with an 11-1/2 threads-per-inch (TPI) thread form. It cuts standard National Pipe Taper threads in ferrous and non-ferrous pipe fittings, couplings, and threaded ports. The tapered thread profile creates a pressure-tight mechanical seal when paired with a matching threaded fitting. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance techs use this tap to thread new pipe connections or restore damaged internal pipe threads in the field or shop.

This tap is suited for threading 1-inch NPT connections in plumbing, HVAC piping, gas distribution, and general industrial pipe work. It is intended for use in a tap wrench, pipe threading machine, or drill press with appropriate cutting fluid. Applications include threading cast iron, steel, brass, and aluminum pipe fittings where a standard NPT taper thread is required.

Key Features

• HSS construction provides hardness and wear resistance for threading ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• 1-inch nominal pipe size with 11-1/2 TPI NPT taper thread form per ANSI standards
• Tapered thread geometry produces a pressure-tight seal in pipe assemblies
• Compatible with tap wrenches, pipe threading machines, and drill press setups
• Minimum order quantity of 1 unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or supplemental 1-inch 11-1/2 TPI NPT pipe tap for use wherever ANSI NPT pipe thread taps of this size are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or machinist familiar with pipe thread cutting procedures. Always apply cutting fluid to the tap and workpiece before threading to reduce heat buildup and extend tool life. Ensure the tap is aligned square to the workpiece bore before applying torque to avoid cross-threading or tap breakage. Follow applicable codes such as the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) for pipe thread and joint requirements.
