The Carmex Threading Tap is a precision spiral-flute tap engineered for British Standard Pipe (BSP) threading. Designed for professionals working with pipes and fittings, it delivers clean, accurate BSP threads with reliable, long-lasting performance.

• Material: HSS-E (high-speed steel with cobalt) for enhanced heat resistance and durability during demanding tapping tasks.
• Flute Design: Spiral flute geometry that promotes efficient chip evacuation, reducing the risk of binding and improving surface finish.
• Thread Type: BSP thread, 1/2" diameter with 14 TPI, tailored for common BSP piping applications.
• Shank/Drive: Hex drive for secure engagement with tapping holders and quick, reliable manual or machine tapping.
• Geometry: Supercut profile optimized for smoother starts and extended tool life in challenging materials.

This tap excels in fast, consistent threading across a range of materials, helping you achieve leak-tight BSP connections with minimal rework. The combination of cobalt-enhanced HSS and spiral flute technology provides robust performance in high-speed threading jobs, making it a dependable choice for plumbing, HVAC, and metalworking tasks where precise BSP threads matter.
