Sutton T292 M3 x 0.5 Straight Flute Tap GG - HSSE - TiCN - DIN 371
Available
The Sutton T292 is a straight flute tap (GG designation) for metric coarse (M) threads, made from premium grade high speed steel (HSSE) with a TiCN coating. This listing covers 6 sizes from M3 x 0.5 to M10 x 1.5.
Straight flutes suit through or blind holes, but they hold only a small amount of chips and do not transport them axially, so deep holes are best avoided except in short chipping materials. The GG designation is for cast iron, with straight flutes and a low rake angle. The chamfer is Form C (2.5 x P), generally for blind holes.
The thread tolerance is 6HX. The tap is built to DIN 371: reinforced shank with square drive.
