Emkay High Speed Steel HSS BS 949/ANSI Pipe Taps BSP (6″ LONG)

Features of Emkay High Speed Steel (HSS) BS 949 / ANSI Pipe Taps – BSP (6″ LONG)

1. High-Speed Steel (HSS) Build – Manufactured from premium-grade HSS for exceptional strength, wear resistance, and long service life.

2. British Standard Pipe (BSP) Threads – Designed to cut precise BSP threads for compatible pipe fittings used in fluid and gas systems.

3. Extended 6-Inch Length – Ideal for deeper or hard-to-reach tapping applications, providing improved access and control.

4. Hand Tap Design – Suitable for manual tapping using tap wrenches; also compatible with machines in low-speed settings.

5. Precision Ground Threads – Ensures clean, accurate threading with minimal burring and smooth finishes.

6. BS 949 / ANSI Standard Compliance – Guarantees consistency and compatibility with international thread specifications.

7. Straight Flute Geometry – Offers effective chip evacuation and consistent cutting across various materials.

8. Dry and Lubricated Use – Can be used with or without cutting lubricants depending on the material and application.

9. Versatile Material Use – Suitable for tapping in steel, brass, copper, aluminum, and other machinable metals.

10. Professional Industrial Tool – Engineered for use in industrial maintenance, fabrication shops, plumbing, and OEMs.

Applications For uses : 

1. Plumbing and Pipe Fitting – Used for cutting BSP threads in pipes and fittings for water, gas, and fluid systems.

2. Extended Reach Threading – The 6-inch length allows access to deep or recessed holes that standard taps cannot reach.

3. Industrial Maintenance & Repairs – Ideal for rethreading worn or damaged BSP threads in machinery and plant equipment.

4. OEM and Fabrication Workshops – Used in the production of parts that require accurate BSP threading in hard-to-reach spots.

5. HVAC Installations – Suitable for tapping threaded ports in heating and cooling units, especially in compact or obstructed spaces.

6. Marine and Offshore Engineering – Applied in shipbuilding and offshore systems where extended-length taps are needed for precise pipe threading.

7. Pneumatic and Hydraulic Systems – Perfect for tapping BSP threads in cylinders, valves, and fluid blocks.

8. Aerospace and Automotive Sectors – Used in areas where extended length and precision tapping are required.

9. Gas and Fuel Line Installations – Ideal for creating tight, reliable BSP connections in fuel dispensing and gas transport systems.

10. Construction and Infrastructure Projects – Helpful in field installations where long-reach tapping is necessary for pipe joints.
