Drillco 2-1/2-8 Pipe Taps (290E332)
Drillco 290E332 2-1/2-8 Pipe Tap is engineered to produce precise tapered pipe threads essential for creating strong, leak-proof connections in plumbing, industrial, and gas applications. The nominal size refers to the pipe fitting size rather than the actual tap diameter, ensuring compatibility with standardized pipe fittings. Crafted from premium grade high-speed steel (HSS), this tap is built for durability and long-lasting performance. Featuring plug geometry and a bright finish, it offers enhanced lubricity for smoother cutting and extended tool life. The spiral point efficiently ejects chips through the bottom of the hole to reduce clogging and improve tapping efficiency. Suitable for use with both tap wrenches and reversible power tools, it also includes a square shank designed for standard tap wrenches. Made in the USA, this tap delivers reliable quality and precision for professional use.
