For welders and fabricators, time is money, and manual tapping is often a slow bottleneck in the production process. The Walter 7/16-20 UNF SST Power Tap allows you to harness the power of your reversible portable drill to cut threads quickly and effortlessly. Gone are the days of tedious back-and-forth hand turning; simply secure this tap in your drill, align it with your pre-drilled hole, and let the tool do the work. It is specifically built to outperform standard taps when working with tough metals like stainless steel, ensuring you get the job done right the first time.
Tapping stainless steel can be a nightmare with inferior tools that dull quickly or snap under pressure. Walter has solved this with their SST surface treatment, which acts as a shield against friction and wear. This means the tap cuts smoother and lasts longer, even in hard alloys. The innovative Power Tip is a game-changer for through-hole applications; it pushes the metal chips out the other side of the hole rather than pulling them up the flutes. This prevents the tap from getting jammed with debris, which is the number one reason taps break mid-job.
Nothing is more frustrating than a tap spinning inside your drill chuck just as you apply pressure. This Walter tap features a 3-flat shank designed to lock into your drill's jaws, providing a slip-free experience. Whether you are repairing damaged threads on a piece of heavy equipment or fabricating new assemblies that require bolted connections, this power tap offers the reliability and speed professional welders demand. It turns a 5-minute hand-tapping struggle into a 10-second power operation, saving you effort and keeping your project on schedule.
