The Bordo ⅝″ x 14 BSPF Intermediate HSS Tap is a professional-grade pipe threading tool from Bordo’s High Speed Steel range, engineered to produce fine British Standard Pipe Fine (BSPF) threads with high accuracy and reliability. Ideal for workshop, fabrication and trade environments, this intermediate tap cuts threads true to a pre-drilled pilot hole — offering dependable performance for both hand and general machine applications.
Constructed from premium High Speed Steel (HSS), this intermediate tap features a lead of four threads, making it well-suited to general-purpose BSPF threading tasks. BSPF threads are commonly used in mechanical couplings and pipe connections where fine pitch and secure engagement are required, and the ⅝″ x 14 thread form ensures compliance with the G Series pipe standard for mechanical applications. This tap is ideal for use in medium tensile materials such as aluminium, brass, bronze, plastics and mild steel.
Bordo is a trusted industrial tooling brand in Australia, known for quality-engineered cutting and threading tools, and Industrial Shed ensures fast access to this reliable BSPF intermediate tap whenever you need it on site or in the workshop.
