RS PRO Precision HSS Metric Spiral Point Machine Threading Tap, M4 Thread Size, 0.7mm Pitch, 53mm Length, Blue 455-895

RS PRO 455-895 is a high-precision threading tap made from High-Speed Steel (HSS) designed for machine tapping M4 metric threads with a 0.7mm pitch and 53mm overall length. This spiral point threading tap features a blue stream tempered finish that reduces friction during cutting and produces smooth, high-quality threads.

The spiral point design uniquely combines a straight flute supplemented by an angular cutting point, which helps keep the flutes clear of swarf and allows free coolant flow, making it highly effective for machine tapping operations.

This tap is suitable for right-hand threading and has a shank diameter of 4mm, making it compatible with standard machine tap holders. It adheres to ISO metric threading standards, ensuring consistent quality for industrial, workshop, plumbing, DIY, and construction applications.

RS PRO threading taps are known for their robustness and precision, supporting both machine and hand tapping without requiring a lead tap. This particular model offers excellent durability due to the high-speed steel material and the blue stream tempered finish.

Manufactured from durable High-Speed Steel (HSS) for reliability and longevity. Designed with spiral point for efficient swarf clearance during machine tapping. Blue stream tempered finish enhances friction reduction and thread finish quality.

Right-hand thread direction suitable for standard tapping operations. Shank diameter of 4mm ensures compatibility with standard tool holders. Complies with ISO metric threading standards for consistent thread quality. Ideal for machine tapping applications with robust cutting and superior thread formation.
