MAYKESTAG HSS-Co5 Machine Tap M24 x 3 Straight Fluted DIN 376 Code 4803

Maykestag HSS-Co5 Machine Tap M24 x 3 Straight Fluted

Professional M24 x 3 metric machine tap manufactured from HSS-Co5, featuring straight flutes, a Form B chamfer and ISO 2 (6H) thread tolerance. Designed for accurate, reliable production of metric ISO threads in through holes across a versatile range of engineering materials.

The Maykestag Code 4803 M24 machine tap is a precision threading tool for producing M24 x 3 metric ISO internal threads in through-hole applications. Its straight-fluted geometry provides a strong, dependable cutting form, while the Form B chamfer of 3.5–5 pitches introduces the cutting load progressively across several cutting teeth for controlled and consistent thread generation.

Manufactured from HSS-Co5 cobalt-alloyed high-speed steel, this tap offers the toughness needed to withstand the significant torque involved in larger-diameter tapping, together with improved resistance to heat and cutting-edge wear. The M24 version is manufactured to DIN 376 dimensional requirements and produces an internal thread to the widely used ISO 2 (6H) tolerance class.
