Description
Overview:
The Metric Tap M6 x 1.00 Straight Flute Plug Cut is a precision cutting tool from Volkel for creating internal ISO metric threads in metal. Made from durable high-quality steel, it is suitable for regular workshop use and site work. The straight flute geometry supports clean chip removal, giving a smooth cut in common materials such as mild steel, aluminium, and brass. The plug chamfer helps start the thread accurately and continue to full depth with good control, especially in through holes. It can be used by hand with a tap wrench or in a suitable machine tapper. Manufactured to ISO standards and compliant with DIN 13, it delivers consistent results for new threads and refurbishment tasks. Typical tapping drill size for M6 x 1.00 is 5.0 mm.
