The set includes both 3-flute and 4-flute taper chamfer taps, allowing controlled thread starting in through-holes and blind holes across a range of metric fastener sizes. Constructed from carbon steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance, each tap measures 4.625 inches overall length and cuts right-hand threads per metric thread standards. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians rely on sets like this for restoring damaged threads or tapping new holes in steel, aluminum, and similar materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap set is suited for general-purpose metric threading tasks in shop, field, and industrial maintenance environments. The taper chamfer style makes it practical for starting threads cleanly, particularly in through-hole applications. The range from M6 x 1.00 to M12 x 1.75 covers the most common metric fastener sizes encountered in mechanical assemblies, equipment repair, and fabrication work. The zinc finish provides baseline protection during storage and use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCovers M6 x 1.00 through M12 x 1.75 metric thread sizes in a single set\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes both 3-flute and 4-flute taps for flexibility across material types and hole conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper chamfer design aids thread starting in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction for general-purpose threading in common metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc finish provides corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, 4.625 inches overall length per tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for general-purpose metric threading applications.

Always use appropriate cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend tap life. Secure the workpiece firmly before tapping and align the tap perpendicular to the hole surface to avoid cross-threading or breakage. Back the tap out periodically to clear chips, especially in deeper holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tap Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M6 x 1.00\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Tap Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M12 x 1.75\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 and 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePieces in Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: LANG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2588M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LANG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539110658354,"sku":"2588M","price":48.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5cce78d211ec1f7f53ee7f7f1b25c1a6.jpg?v=1785834827","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lang-2588m-metric-tap-set-m6-m12-taper-6-piece-carbon-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
