Product details

Wire thread insert taps prepare the internal thread required by a specified wire insert system. The finished screw thread designation is only part of the information needed: the insert specification and installation requirements must also be known. Confirm the selected insert, workpiece material and hole geometry before defining the tap for a repair or production job.

Insert-specific preparation

Select the tap against the insert specification rather than a standard screw-thread tap alone.

Hole geometry

Provide the intended insert length, hole type and available tapping depth.

Connection and process

Confirm machine or hand use and the required tap shank arrangement.

Specifications & model range

Dimensions are in millimeters unless otherwise stated. Confirm the final drawing before ordering.

Drawing confirmation requiredThis page provides a family/model index or an inquiry checklist, not a complete manufacturing drawing. Request the selected model dimensions, fit and required inspection criteria before ordering.

Can I use an ordinary tap of the final screw size instead?

Do not assume so. The insert-receiving thread must match the specified wire insert system.

Does this product include inserts or installation tools?

This page covers taps. List inserts or installation accessories separately if they are needed.

Which insert brands are approved?

No brand-specific approval is established here. Provide the required insert standard or technical specification for confirmation.

What should I send for a thread-repair inquiry?

Send the original thread designation, chosen insert specification, material and available hole depth.
