The Bordo 22 × 2.5 mm MC Taper HSS Tap is part of Bordo’s professional Metric Coarse (MC) hand and machine tapping range, engineered as a **starter taper tap** for cutting accurate internal threads. Designed to provide smooth entry and alignment in drilled holes, this tap is ideal for workshop, maintenance and trade threading applications where precision and tool durability matter.
Manufactured from premium High-Speed Steel (HSS), this 22 mm diameter taper tap with a 2.5 mm pitch features a 60° metric coarse thread form with a flat crest and clearance at the root — promoting dependable engagement between mating threads. The larger root radius and lower thread height improve strength and chip clearance, while the taper lead (typically eight threads) helps initiate thread cutting easily, reducing the risk of misalignment and cross-threading. Designed for use in medium tensile materials such as steel, aluminium and plastics, this tap is suitable for both hand and general machine use.
Bordo is recognised for producing high-quality cutting and threading tools built to industrial standards, and Industrial Shed ensures fast access to trusted trade-grade taps so you can tackle threading jobs confidently on site or in the workshop.
