The Bordo 6 x 0.53 BA Bottoming HSS Tap is a precision threading tool crafted for accurate internal thread cutting in British Association (BA) applications. Designed for trade and engineering use, this bottoming tap delivers reliable performance when tapping to the bottom of blind holes, providing full thread engagement and clean, professional results.
Manufactured from premium High Speed Steel (HSS), the 3044-6B features a bottoming lead (two threads) that minimises thread run-out — ideal when cutting fine BA threads in medium tensile materials using hand or general machine threading methods. BA threads were originally developed for precision equipment and are characterised by a rounded crest and root with a 47.5° included angle, offering smooth engagement and excellent finish quality. Bottoming taps are typically used after an initial taper or intermediate tap to complete the thread to its full depth.
Bordo has built a strong reputation in Australia for supplying dependable industrial threading tools backed by quality manufacturing standards. Industrial Shed ensures you have fast access to trusted trade-grade taps when you need them on site or in the workshop.
