Bordo – 1/4" x 20 BSW Taper HSS Tap | 3028-1/4T

The Bordo 1/4" x 20 BSW Taper HSS Tap is a professional-grade British Standard Whitworth (BSW) thread cutting tool engineered for precision internal threading in medium tensile materials. Built for workshop, fabrication and general industrial use, this taper tap is ideal as a starting tap where controlled thread engagement and reliable performance are required — especially when initiating BSW threads in difficult or high-precision holes.

Manufactured from durable high-speed steel (HSS), this BSW taper tap features a classic 55° thread angle with rounded roots and crests — the traditional British Standard Whitworth form developed by Sir Joseph Whitworth in 1841. The taper lead (eight threads of gradual engagement) enables easier entry into pre-drilled holes, reducing breakage and improving cutting control. With a 1/4" nominal diameter, 20 threads per inch (TPI) and a recommended drill diameter of approximately 5.1 mm, this tap is suitable for use in a variety of machinable materials and can be used by hand or in general machine tapping operations.

Bordo is recognised in Australia for delivering high-quality industrial tooling backed by solid manufacturing standards. Industrial Shed ensures you have fast access to trusted trade-grade threading tools when you need them on site or in the workshop.
