・X Performer (XPF) forming tap series

Among the grooveless tap series, it can be processed up to about 35 HRC with low cutting force and high lubricity.

The lineup is abundant from M1 to M45.

With conventional grooveless taps, it is difficult to process

The advantage of the S-XPF torque reduction is that the burrage of the through hole pull out is suppressed.

What is the difference between S-XPF and conventional NRT?

Compared to conventional NRTs, the S-XPF is a grooveless Tap that can be processed with lower torque and lower heat generation.

What are the advantages of OIL-S-XPF with oil holes compared to S-XPF without oil holes?

Compared to the S-XPF without oil holes, the OIL-S-XPF with oil holes is recommended for high-speed machining with a cutting speed of more than 30 m/min. Not only efficiency but also durability can be improved

How hard can S-XPF be processed?

As a guideline, it is possible to process up to 35 HRC or less.

There are P and B on the S-XPF inscription, but what do they represent?

The P and B in the S-XPF engraving represent the length of the chamfer , which is the part to be processed by the rolling tap. P (plug) is 4 pitches long for through hole , and B (bottom) is 2 pitches long for stop holes.

Should the cutting data of the S-XPF be used at the same level as the conventional forming tap ?

For materials other than stainless steel, it can be used almost twice as fast as conventional products.

Cutting data of stainless steel with S-XPF

Due to the low processing load, stainless steel can be used about 1.5 times faster than conventional products.
