Dormer E238 HSS-E-PM Blue Ring Shark Metric Spiral Flute Tap M16 Spiral Flute

The Dormer E238 Blue Ring Shark tap is engineered to deliver exceptional thread quality and tool life in the most demanding stainless steel applications. Its advanced HSS-E-PM substrate and specialised blue ring coating provide outstanding wear resistance and heat dissipation, allowing you to achieve consistent, accurate threads even in difficult materials like 304 and 316 stainless. This M16 spiral flute tap is the ideal choice for through-hole threading where chip evacuation is critical, reducing the risk of breakage and downtime.

- Premium powder metallurgy high-speed steel (HSS-E-PM) for superior toughness and edge retention

- Blue ring coating minimises friction and prevents galling, even at higher cutting speeds

- Spiral flute geometry efficiently lifts chips out of through holes, reducing clogging and re-cutting

- Optimised back taper design lowers torque and ensures smoother cutting action

- Metric coarse thread (M16 x 2.0) conforms to ISO standard for precise fit

- Suitable for a wide range of stainless steels including austenitic, ferritic, and martensitic grades

- Manufactured to tight tolerances for consistent thread depth and surface finish

For reliable, high-performance threading in stainless steel, the Dormer E238 Blue Ring Shark tap is a professional’s choice.
