Product Description:

Norseman Type 20-AG Gold Oxide Spiral Point Plug Taps are manufactured from high-speed steel and engineered for machine tapping through holes in a wide variety of materials. The spiral point design continuously ejects chips forward ahead of the tap, helping eliminate chip disposal problems and reducing the potential for thread damage. The gold oxide finish provides low-temperature stress relief that enhances lubricity, reduces friction, and increases tap toughness for dependable threading performance. Proudly manufactured in the USA with globally sourced materials.
