The Bordo 3/4″ × 10 BSW Taper HSS Tap is a professional-grade British Standard Whitworth (BSW) taper hand and machine threading tap designed for precision thread cutting in medium tensile materials. Built to classic BSW specifications, this taper tap provides an easy thread start and excellent alignment — ideal for workshop, fabrication, maintenance and general trade applications requiring strong, accurate threads.
Manufactured from durable High Speed Steel (HSS), this BSW taper tap features the traditional Whitworth 55° thread form with rounded roots and crests, offering strong thread engagement and excellent structural integrity. The taper lead (typically eight threads) allows smoother thread entry and better alignment when starting difficult or high-precision holes. The tool is suitable for both hand tapping and use with general machines.
