Synchronized Rigid Tapping – PM3 TXC Taps for CNC

The UFS technical brochure is dedicated to synchronized rigid tapping (Rigid Tapping) on CNC machines, offering an overview of tap families designed to ensure precision, process stability and high reliability.

The range includes straight flute taps, spiral point taps and 40° spiral flute taps, available for blind holes and through holes, also in FOR versions with internal lubrication, ideal for improving chip evacuation and heat dissipation during machining.

Made from PM3 steel with high-resistance TXC coating, these industrial threading tools are suitable for applications on high-strength steels, stainless steel, materials with Rm ≤ 1400 N/mm², cast iron and high-silicon aluminium castings, ensuring high torsional strength and long tool life.

The QR codes shown in the technical tables allow quick access to the product sheets on the UFS B2B portal, to check availability, variants and alternative solutions. A tool designed to simplify tool selection for synchronized rigid tapping, ensuring speed, precision and professional technical support.

Spiral point for through holes, PM3 steel, TXC coating. The chip direction corresponds to the feed of the tap; suitable for through holes only. Thread depth up to 3xD. For machining steels up to Rm ≤ 1200 N/mm², stainless steels, and non-ferrous materials.
The h6 shank tolerance makes the tool suitable for use with synchronous chucks or shrink-fit chucks.

40° helical taps, PM3 steel, and TXC coating. The high helix angle allows for threading blind holes up to 2.5xD deep and, in the version with a central hole (FOR), up to 3xD. The chip flow is opposite to the tool feed. Furthermore, the back tapered threads (BT - Back Tapered) improve chip evacuation and prevent tap tooth breakage, especially when machining deep holes. h6 tolerance shank for Synchro chucks or shrink fit chucks.
