TAPS MACHINE 1/16 NPT

The 1/16 NPT gas pipe machine tap is designed according to the U.S. national standard ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 and is used to create tapered threads with a 60-degree angle. The nominal external diameter of this tap is 9.728 millimeters, and the thread pitch is 27 threads per inch TPI. The overall length of the tool typically ranges from 40 to 50 millimeters, including the cutting section and the standard shank. The tap is made from high-speed steel HSS or hard carbide, often coated with TiN to enhance wear resistance. This tap provides precise and uniform threading on both steel and non-steel materials.

The taper angle for the 1/16 NPT thread is 1.789 degrees per side, enabling optimal mechanical sealing in gas and fluid connections. The 1/16 NPT tap is commonly used for threading pipes under moderate pressure and is highly compatible with threaded gas and hydraulic fittings. The recommended cutting speed ranges between 8 and 15 meters per minute, combined with proper coolant use to reduce breakage and extend tool life. The shank usually complies with DIN 376 standards, allowing easy mounting on CNC machines or drill presses.
