The Bordo 12 x 1.25 mm MF Taper HSS Tap is a precision threading tool designed for professional tradespeople and workshop use. Part of Bordo’s Metric Fine hand and machine tap range, this taper tap is engineered to start threading easily and accurately in medium tensile materials for general threading tasks and high-precision holes.
Manufactured from durable High Speed Steel (HSS), this metric fine taper tap features a 60° thread angle with a flat crest and root clearance to optimise engagement between external and internal threads. The larger root radius and lower thread height enhance ease of screw thread processing and increase thread strength. Taper taps have an extended lead allowing gradual thread cutting — making them ideal for starting threads and tapping challenging or precision holes with improved alignment and reduced breakage risk.
Bordo is a trusted name in industrial cutting and threading tools in Australia, known for delivering quality performance in trade and workshop environments. Industrial Shed gives you fast access to Bordo’s professional grade taper taps when you need them on site or in the workshop.
