The Bordo 2 × 0.4 mm MC Intermediate HSS Tap is part of Bordo’s professional Metric Coarse (MC) hand and machine tapping range, engineered for reliable internal thread cutting in general-purpose applications. Designed as an **intermediate tap** with a medium-chamfer lead, this tool offers balanced thread engagement and efficient cutting — ideal for workshop, maintenance and trade environments.
Manufactured from premium High-Speed Steel (HSS), this 2 mm diameter tap with 0.4 mm pitch uses the ISO Metric Coarse 60° thread form, providing good strength and smooth engagement between external and internal threads. The flat crest and clearance at the thread root improve cutting action and reduce friction, while the larger root radius and lower thread height help enhance thread strength. Intermediate taps have a lead of four threads, making them excellent for cutting true threads to a pre-drilled pilot hole with reduced breakage risk. This tap is suitable for use in medium tensile materials such as steel, aluminium and plastics, and it can be used for both hand and general machine tapping.
Bordo is known for producing high-quality cutting and threading tools built to industrial standards. Industrial Shed ensures fast access to trusted trade-grade taps so you can tackle precision threading tasks efficiently when you need the right tool on site or in the workshop.
