• Save Time: Drill, Tap and Debur in one single operation
• Three-flute design
• Split Point SmoothStart™ Tip
• Hardened Tapping Edge
• Deburring Cutting Edge
• 1/4 in. Hex Shank

Constructed from High Speed Steel (HSS) for strength and durability, the bits have balanced, hardened tapping edges. A 1/4" hex shank makes them compatible not only with cordless drills but also impact drivers. With the incorporated SmoothStart™ Tip these drill taps start cutting faster and smoother, resulting in a clean cut, and minimizing thread damage to extend the life of the bit.

While traditional drill taps have a single or double flute design, IDEAL Drill Taps feature a 3-flute design to provide faster chip removal and minimize binding while drilling. The deburring cutting edge provides a clean hole and prevents over-drilling. Rated for drilling and tapping up to 10 gauge mild steel, aluminum, copper, brass and even plastic.

For optimal performance:
■ Recommended RPM range is 300 to 1500 RPM
■ Use in cordless power drills and impact drivers
■ Use cutting oil to extend life of drill tap
