AEROSPACE:

OSG:
OSG makes a complete line of taps specifically for the aerospace fastener industry. Specially designed materials, coatings, and geometries, are available in both Metric and English sizes. A wide array of H limits are stocked standards at OSG. This means that what you may be currently buying as a special tap may be a standard with OSG. Tapping aerospace materials is no problem with OSG. 


HARD TAPPING:

ALLEN BENJAMIN:
Allen Benjamin Co. specializes in solid carbide taps for tapping highly abrasive materials and hard materials. Tapping stellite, inconel, titanium and beryllium are perfect applications for Benjamin taps. Benjamin also manufactures a line of ultra-miniature thread taps down to #0000-160 and 
M.6 x .15. Serration cutters and chasers can be made to print.

OSG:
OSG's line of EXO-Carb-VX taps are made to tap materials from 55rc to 65 rc. Available from stock in sizes 4-40 to 1/2-20 and M2.6 x .45 to M20 x 1.5. Tap what you thought was impossible with OSG's VX taps.


HOLDERS:

CENTAUR:
Tapping holders from Centaur are stocked for fast delivery. Stop messing around with rubber collets and move into the highly accurate steel collets with square drive. These collets let you tap in any ER or TG style collet chuck. Collets are available in sealed style, for coolant through applications. Quick-change collets for built style holders are also available. Holders are stocked in tension/compression as well as rigid styles in a variety of shanks.

FETTES MANUFACTURING CO.:
Fettes offers high precision ball drive, quick change tap drivers and collets. Tap holders will accept bilz-style collets and are available as rigid or tension/compression style. All collets are made from premium 4l40 hardened and ground for precision operation. Holders are available in chuck sizes #1, #2 or #3, and in shank sizes of CAT, BT, straight or automotive. 



PIPE TAPPING:

OSG:
OSG's Exo-pipe tap is spiral fluted for stainless steel tapping applications, or gummy, hard to cut materials. Use this spiral fluted tap in place of interrupted thread pipe taps. Sizes are available in NPT and NPTF thread forms.

Reiff & Nestor:
R & N makes 37 different styles of pipe taps--a very complete and comprehensive line of pipe taps. Standard, extension style, cast iron cutting, high hook or British style are all stock standards. If straight or taper tapping is your problem, we have the tap style to help.


ROLL FORMING:

BALAX:
Balax roll form taps are designed and manufactured with lead form geometry correction. This process yields reduced tapping torque by creating lead threads on pitch. Roll form or "threadfloer" forming taps make stronger threads, have generally longer tool life and make no chips. Balax makes taps to ANSI, DIN and JIS sizes in plug, bottom, or 1 lead chamfers. Balax stocks a great variety of thread limits in both metric and inch sizes.

OSG:
OSG's version of the roll form tap is called the NRT style. OSG manufactures their taps from two types of materials. Depending on your tapping requirements, you may choose a tap made from compressed powder (CPM) treated with a TiCN coating, or a cobalt material in bright, TiN, TiCN, or CRN coating. Taps are available in #0-#12 sizes, as well as 1/4" to 3/4". Metric sizes are stocked from M1.6 to M12.


SPECIALS:
