The Bordo 1" x 8 BSW HSS Tap Set is a professional-grade British Standard Whitworth (BSW) hand and machine threading kit engineered for accurate internal BSW thread cutting in medium tensile materials. Designed for workshop, fabrication and industrial applications, this complete set delivers reliable thread production using the classic Whitworth thread form — ideal for trades, machinery maintenance and restoration work that require robust, traditional threads.
Manufactured from premium High-Speed Steel (HSS), this BSW tap set incorporates the traditional 55° Whitworth thread profile with rounded roots and crests as specified in BS84:1956 — a form developed by Sir Joseph Whitworth in 1841. The set typically includes Taper, Intermediate and Bottoming taps, allowing you to initiate, cut and finish internal threads from start to bottom of blind holes. With a 1" nominal diameter and 8 threads per inch (TPI), these taps are suitable for use in metals and other machinable materials, and can be applied in both hand and general machine tapping operations.
Bordo is recognised across Australia for supplying 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.
