Parlec 10-025 Tapping Adapter Numertap 100

Product Description

The PARLEC 10-025 is a quick-change tapping adapter designed for use in CNC machining and tapping operations. It accepts a 1/4 inch tap and is built to the NUMERTAP 100 series standard, offering consistent, repeatable tap alignment in production environments. The adapter features a tap shank diameter of 0.255 inches and a tap square size of 0.191 inches, making it suitable for accurate torque transfer during thread-cutting operations. Machinists and tool crib technicians working in metal fabrication, job shops, or production machining will find this adapter a direct fit for NUMERTAP 100 tooling setups.

This adapter is intended for use in tapping heads and toolholding systems that conform to the NUMERTAP 100 series interface. It is commonly applied in vertical and horizontal machining centers where high-volume tapping cycles demand repeatable tool engagement. The quick-change design reduces setup time between tap changes without requiring complete toolholder disassembly. No coolant-through capability is present, so it is best suited for applications where flood or mist coolant is supplied externally.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machining center before changing adapters or taps. Verify that the tap shank and square dimensions match the adapter specifications before seating the tap. Follow the toolholder manufacturer guidelines for proper retention and torque transfer to avoid tap breakage or misalignment during operation.
