The Bordo 16 x 2 mm HSS Cobalt MC Spiral Point Tap is a heavy-duty machine threading tool from Bordo’s premium HSS-Co5 (Cobalt) Metric Coarse range, engineered for reliable and consistent thread cutting in through-hole applications. Built for workshop, fabrication and industrial environments, this spiral point (gun nose) tap delivers strong threads with excellent chip control — ideal for tougher materials like stainless steel, high tensile steels and general workshop metals.
Constructed from superior cobalt-enhanced high speed steel (HSS-Co5), this tap offers enhanced hardness, heat resistance and extended tool life compared with standard HSS taps — making it a dependable choice for production, maintenance and engineering use. The **spiral point (also called gun nose)** design propels swarf ahead of the tap and keeps the flutes clear, promoting smoother cutting action, better chip evacuation and a cleaner thread finish. With a **16 mm major diameter and 2 mm pitch**, this spiral point tap conforms to ISO metric coarse standards and produces robust 60° threads with reliable engagement.
Bordo has a strong reputation in Australia for high-quality industrial cutting tools, and Industrial Shed ensures you have fast access to this essential machine tap when you need it on site or in the workshop.
