Left Hand Taps

Various Styles

The left-hand spiral taps are mirror image designs of right-hand taps.

Design Options

  • Enorm - Typical tool for blind hole threads in long-chipping materials. The fast spiral flutes provide good chip removal from the blind hole.
  • Rekord A - Especially for short-chipping material. The flutes can hold only a part of the chips. There is practically no chip transport in an axial direction. We do not recommend using this tap type in deep blind hole or through hole threads in long-chipping material.
  • Rekord B - Typical tool for through hole threads in long-chipping material. The spiral point grind pushes the tightly rolled chips ahead and prevents clogging of the flutes. Coolant-lubricant can flow freely.
