The Bordo 7 x 0.48 BA Intermediate HSS Tap is a precision threading tool designed for producing accurate British Association (BA) threads in fine mechanical, electrical and instrumentation work. Built for workshop and trade applications, this intermediate tap is ideal for continuing and refining threads after a taper tap has been used.
Manufactured from High Speed Steel (HSS), this tap delivers excellent durability, wear resistance and consistent cutting performance in light engineering materials. The intermediate (second) lead provides a balance between easy thread starting and achieving deeper, more complete thread form — making it suitable for through holes and general-purpose BA threading tasks. The 7 BA x 0.48 pitch size is commonly specified in precision assemblies, restoration work and electrical fittings.
Bordo is trusted throughout Australia for dependable industrial cutting tools that meet professional standards. Industrial Shed stocks essential BA tap sizes to help you complete precision threading jobs efficiently and accurately.
