Product Description

Steel tools with high speed are excellent for general-purpose applications. They are tough and hard to wear, and are usually well suited for general-purpose tasks

Coatings of titanium nitride add a hard coating of gold-colored ceramic to the surface of the tool, extending its life and allowing faster cutting speeds compared to tools without coatings

Having a round shank makes it possible to use virtually any tool holding system

If a spiral fluted tool is used counterclockwise (right hand cut), it evacuates chips from up and out of the cut to minimize

This thread is 625 inches long

A spiral flute tap with a square end

4/5

This thing has been tapped into acrylic 50+ times and it still cuts like it's brand new. It is best to use the appropriate 13/64th drill bit before tapping, as well as some sort of oil/wax based lubrication, and I am sure this bit will last forever. The chewing agent has not yet been used on metal, but it likely will chew it as well. An air compressor blast is all that's needed for the next job, and the debris is gone.
