Tapping Attachments, Reversible

TACO has introduced a new low weight high-speed automatic reversible tapping attachment. It is suitable for use with standard HSS taps on any pillar-drilling machine; vertical or horizontal; for right or left hand tapping; and for blind or through holes. Made of alloy steels with all moving parts hardened and ground to precision, this tapping attachment is available in capacities ranging from M2-M30. An ultra sensitive 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 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 accurate thread profile. Accurate depth control is achieved by means of its pr
