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

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

1. Premium High-Speed Steel (HSS) – Built from high-grade HSS for enhanced durability, hardness, and long service life.

2. NPSF (National Pipe Straight Fuel) Thread Form – Designed to create parallel dry-seal threads used in pressure-tight female connections.

3. Extra-Long 6-Inch Design – Extended length enables threading in deep or recessed holes where standard taps can’t reach.

4. BS 949 / ANSI Standards Compliance – Manufactured to meet international specifications, ensuring accuracy and fit.

5. Straight Thread Design – Creates non-tapered threads that seal properly with compatible NPTF male fittings.

6. Precision Ground Flutes – Provides smooth cutting action and excellent chip evacuation for clean, accurate threads.

7. Manual or Machine Operation – Suitable for hand tapping or use with low-speed machines in production or maintenance environments.

8. Leak-Free Connection Capability – Ideal for applications requiring dry-seal, pressure-tight joints without thread tape or sealants.

9. Corrosion and Wear Resistance – Excellent resistance to wear, heat, and rust, suitable for harsh environments.

10. Versatile Application Use – Effective on a variety of materials including cast iron, steel, brass, aluminum, and more.

Applications For uses : 

1. Fuel and Hydraulic Systems – Ideal for tapping NPSF threads in components requiring dry-seal, leak-proof connections.

2. Aerospace and Automotive – Used for fuel, brake, and hydraulic line fittings where precision and safety are critical.

3. High-Pressure Equipment Manufacturing – Suitable for creating tight, straight-threaded ports in pressure vessels and cylinders.

4. Industrial Maintenance & Repair – Perfect for rethreading or repairing female NPSF connections in deep or difficult-to-access locations.

5. Valve and Pump Assembly – Applied in manufacturing and servicing of valves, pumps, and fluid handling systems.

6. Marine and Offshore Applications – Used for threading straight-seal connections in harsh, corrosion-prone environments.

7. Oil & Gas Industry – Essential for tapping pipe ends and ports used in fuel dispensing and containment systems.

8. Machinery and Equipment Assembly – Helps create NPSF threads in castings and housings for mechanical assemblies.

9. Instrumentation and Control Systems – Supports tight-threaded connections in pressure sensors, gauges, and controllers.

10. Fabrication and Tool Rooms – Used in custom part production and precision fitting tasks in workshops and tool rooms.
