CoroTap 100 with -PM geometry is a family of optimized straight flute cut taps for ISO P materials. The taps have a high-performance chip-breaking design to improve chip control and thread quality, reducing production interruptions and eliminating manual chip removal. The result is a more stable machining process with consistent output and reduced operator involvement.

The -PM geometry integrates a chip breaker chamfer on two flutes to enable efficient chip separation while maintaining thread accuracy and surface finish. Internal coolant delivery ensures clean chip evacuation and a high-quality finish in blind holes, while external coolant via collets or nozzles is recommended for through-hole applications.

The tap range includes multiple geometries tailored for ISO P, K, N, and H materials. Options include straight flute taps, spiral point taps, spiral flute taps, and forming taps to address a wide variety of threading needs.
