Tork Craft Taper Point Tap HSS M16x1.5mm, NR1160-1C

Tork Craft Taper Point Tap HSS M16x1.5mm, NR1160-1C is a high‑speed steel ISO hand tap for cutting or restoring precise internal M16 x 1.5 mm metric coarse threads in metal. Supplied singly on a hanging card, it is ideal for heavy‑duty engineering, automotive and fabrication work where standard M16 fasteners are used in structural or load‑bearing assemblies.

Forged from quality HSS and produced to exacting specifications, this tap offers excellent wear resistance, hardness and thermal stability, keeping cutting edges sharp in demanding workshop environments. Used with the correct tapping drill (typically 14.5 mm for M16 x 1.5) and suitable cutting lubricant, its hand‑tap geometry helps evacuate chips and form clean, accurate threads.

Benefits

High‑grade HSS construction provides long‑lasting cutting performance and resistance to wear, heat and chipping under high loads.
Widely used M16 x 1.5 coarse thread makes this tap a staple for structural, machinery and repair applications where strong, repeatable threads are critical.
Precision grinding and appropriate drill pairing help deliver cleaner, more accurate threads with reduced risk of cross‑threading or tap breakage.
Single carded supply allows easy replacement of a high‑use size or expansion of an existing tap range without purchasing a full set.
