Tap Extension: 1/2" Tap, 9" OAL, 0.367" Tap Shank Dia MPN:96107

The tap extension with a diameter of 1/2 and overall length of 9 is designed to extend the life of taps by protecting them from over-grinding or galling while providing superior rigidity for deep hole tapping applications in steel, aluminum, and cast iron materials. Its 0.367 tap shank diameter allows the extension to fit snugly against the shoulder of a tap adapter, eliminating wobble or slippage during heavy-duty threading operations. Thus, professionals working in manufacturing plants, repair shops, or machine maintenance units can efficiently utilize this tool while machining automotive, aerospace, military components, construction hardware products, and general engineering parts to obtain precise hole tolerances.
