Reversible tapping attachment (type hrf) (machine tool ss)

Jitubhai & Co has introduced Taco brand lightweight, high speed automatic reversible tapping attachment, Type HRF. This is suitable for use with standard HSS taps on any drilling machine vertically for right or left hand tapping of blind or through blind or through hole. Made of alloy steels with all moving parts hardened and ground to precision, this tapping attachment is available in capacities ranging from 1.4 to 30 mm covered in four models. An ultra sensitive and smooth operating ball clutch protects the tap against breakage when tap is bottomed in a blind hole or core hole is shallow or tap is dull. Ball drive forward and reverse movement is given to the holding spindle of the attachment to obtain significant reduction in friction during tapping operation. A planetary gear reversing mechanism transmits smooth positive reverse to the tap retraction so there is no possibility of slippage and the retraction is 75% faster than the machine spindle. Axial float ensures smooth tapping and better thread profile. Accurate depth control is by means of accurate neutral mechanism. Cushioned drive eliminates the possibility of cross threading during roughing and finishing taps
