Drillco 1"-12 HSS Left Hand Taper Tap (23A164FT)
Drillco 23A164FT 1"-12 HSS Left Hand Taper Tap – 2300 Series is engineered to create precise left-hand (counterclockwise) threads with a gradual cutting engagement that reduces tapping torque and enhances thread quality. Its taper geometry allows for easier thread starting, making it ideal for applications where screws may loosen due to stress. Made from premium-grade high-speed steel (HSS) for durability, this tap features a black oxide finish that extends tool life by reducing friction and improving wear resistance. The standard square shank ensures compatibility with all common tap wrenches and machines.
