About Trapezoidal Taps

Trapezoidal Taps

Surface Coating. While selecting the correct type of tap for a job, the material to be tapped should also be considered. This may determine the surface coating that should be applied to the tap in order to extend its life. Most taps are supplied with no surface treatment. They are referred to as Bright Finish. These taps are mainly for use on non-ferrous materials, or steels that do not cold weld. Bright finish taps are therefore suitable for all hand operations, where speeds are too low for cold welding to occur, and for most machine operations. Trapezoidal screw threads were devised to allow rotary and transversing motion on machines; and are also used in jacks, valves, presses and other mechanisms where heavy loads are encountered. The trapezoidal thread is characterized by a 30 included angle. Trapezoidal taps typically require specialized engineering and design due to the nature and severity of cut required in producing trapezoidal threads. (these are the metric equivalent of Acme Taps but with a 30° included angle) All size and variety available with us.

Precision Thread Cutting for Industrial Needs

Trapezoidal taps deliver reliable and accurate internal thread profiles, essential for high-performance mechanical assemblies. Compliant with industry thread standards such as DIN 103 and ISO 2901-2904, they cater to diverse manufacturing requirements in nut, screw, and machinery part production. The precision ground and polished surface improves durability and ensures a smooth cutting process, minimizing tool wear and enhancing the quality of finished threads.


Versatile Application and Long Service Life

Designed to work on materials ranging from steel to aluminum and cast iron, trapezoidal taps are fully heat-treated to provide optimal strength and toughness. Their advanced design features offer high wear resistance, making them suitable for both manual and machine operations. With customizable options in shank type, blade size, and coating, these taps meet the performance needs of varied industrial setups, while providing a long operational lifespan when properly maintained.


Customizable Solutions and Efficient Packaging

Manufacturers and suppliers offer trapezoidal taps in standard and customized configurations, supporting tolerance grades and specific dimensional requirements. Packing options include individual or set packaging in plastic cases for secure handling and storage. With efficient distribution channels throughout India, these taps are available through distributors, exporters, importers, and wholesalers, meeting the unique needs of clients across multiple industries.
