High-speed steel tools are good for most general purpose applications, offering a combination of hardness and toughness for wear resistance
Titanium nitride coatings add a hard layer of gold-colored ceramic to the surface that extends tool life and permits faster cutting speeds than uncoated tools
Round shanks allow use with a wide variety of toolholding systems
Straight flute tools allow chips to collect in the flutes as they cut and are well suited for most applications in shallow cuts
Right-hand cut tools have a cutting action that engages when they are run in a clockwise direction

Product Description

YG-1 J1 series vanadium alloy HSS spiral pointed tap. High-speed steel tools are good for most general purpose applications, offering a combination of hardness and toughness for wear resistance. Titanium nitride coatings add a hard layer of gold-colored ceramic to the surface that extends tool life and permits faster cutting speeds than uncoated tools. Round shanks allow use with a wide variety of toolholding systems. Straight flute tools allow chips to collect in the flutes as they cut and are well suited for most applications in shallow cuts. Right-hand cut tools have a cutting action that engages when they are run in a clockwise direction. Applications: Good for steel castings and forgings/heat-treatable alloy steels, free machining stainless steel, heat and corrosion-resistant stainless steel/valve stainless steel, aluminum alloy castings, nodular cast iron/chilled cast iron/meehanite iron/ductile iron. Excellent for low carbon/free machining carbon steel, medium to high carbon steel.
