Description:
• TAP HOLDER •
The tap holder is a compact jewellery and metalworking tool designed for securely holding small taps during internal thread cutting. Featuring a central clamping body with dual handles, it provides controlled turning pressure for creating or restoring fine threads in drilled holes. Ideal for jewellers, watchmakers, model makers, students, hobbyists, and compact workshop setups requiring a simple hand tool for precision tapping work.
• KEY POINTS •
[Tap holder for fine internal thread cutting]
[Length: 115mm]
[Steel body with dual turning handles]
[Ideal for holding small taps during precision threading work]
• MORE INFO •
Designed for controlled hand tapping, this tap holder allows small taps to be held securely while cutting or restoring internal threads. The dual-handle design helps apply even turning pressure, improving control and reducing the risk of uneven thread cutting during delicate bench work.
The central clamping section holds the tap in position while the handles provide leverage for gradual, accurate rotation. This makes the tool especially useful for jewellery fittings, threaded posts, screw mechanisms, watch and model components, repair work, and other small-scale applications where clean internal threads are required.
• MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS •
[Product type: tap holder]
[Length: 115mm]
[Material: steel]
[Profile: central tap clamp with dual turning handles]
[Use: holding taps for internal threading and thread repair]
[Suitable materials: gold, silver, brass, copper, aluminium, and other soft non-ferrous metals when used with compatible taps]
• USAGE & APPLICATIONS •
Perfect for jewellers, watchmakers, model makers, students, hobbyists, and small workshops requiring a compact hand tool for precision tapping. Insert the tap securely into the holder, align it with the pre-drilled hole, and turn gradually to cut or restore the internal thread.
This tap holder is best suited to small-scale precision work rather than heavy engineering applications. It is ideal for threaded jewellery fittings, screw posts, small mechanisms, custom pins, repair parts, and miniature components where controlled hand threading is required.
• CARE & SAFETY •
Use with suitable cutting lubricant and apply steady, controlled pressure when tapping. Turn gradually and back off regularly to clear swarf and reduce the risk of binding or breaking the tap. Ensure the hole is correctly sized before cutting threads, and avoid forcing the tool through hard or unsuitable materials. Keep the holder clean, dry, and lightly oiled when not in use. Eye protection is recommended when cutting, drilling, or threading metal.
