Technical Description of productsInformation 20. Carbide Taps Technological advances in CNC machines and machining centers, and machining automation have helped improve the overall tapping process. YAMAWA was quick to respond to evolving customer needs resulting from technological innovations. We can now recommend carbide taps, which provide tremendous improvements in mass-production and in reducing costs. It is estimated that carbide taps have 50 times more durability than HSS taps in tapping, when used properly. YAMAWA engineering believes the best carbide materials suitable for taps are ultramicro grain tungsten carbide, or ultra ne grain carbide made of high cobalt. ■Features of Carbide Taps (1)Excellent durability with high toughness is obtainable. (2)High anti-friction features are provided by the material's high hardness and comparatively high toughness, which ultimately results in a longer tool life. (3)Specially designed cutting angle and other dimensional features produce the internal threads with high tolerance accuracy and consistency. (4)Under certain tapping condition, YAMAWA carbide taps can be used even for tapping hard-to-machine materials. ■Points to note during tapping with Carbide taps: (1) Machine vibration, or run-out, can lead to Carbide tap chipping and premature failure. Tapping vibrations need to be kept to a minimum. (2) Tap holder should be a rigid type for a Carbide tap. A holder attachment with axial oat, or radial oat tends to promote Carbide tap breakage and chipping. (3) The hole to be tapped must be located correctly and on center ; any centering o or non-straight drilled hole tends to cause Carbide tap breakage due to de ection. Select correct hole depth with respect to tapping length (for blind hole only). It is especially important to prevent tap damage from chip packing and bottom thrusting in blind hole tapping. (4) Cutting lubricants - select grade of lubricant. Improper ow of coolant, or lack of su cient amount of lubricant, or cooling can increase the likelihood of Carbide tap chipping due to work material welding. Caution must be taken during dry machining to prevent chip welding to the tap. (5) Work pieces - we provide Carbide taps with increased toughness, but Carbide taps are inferior to High Speed Steel (HSS) in the area of toughness. As a matter of fact Carbide taps have limited application due to this di erence in toughness to HSS. ■Commonly used materials and cutting conditions.
