Spiral Point Taps
Designed for through-holes, directing chips forward ahead of the tool to reduce chip accumulation in the cutting zone.

Precision CNC Taps: High-Performance Threading Tools
Bauron manufactures solid-carbide and HSS-Co taps engineered for controlled thread geometry, chip management, and repeatable internal threading operations.
Industrial threading
Advanced Threading Tools for High-Volume Production
Internal thread tapping is a critical machining operation where tool failure can damage a nearly finished component. Bauron combines sub-micron substrates with application-matched PVD coating options for custom tapping requirements.
The portfolio supports deep blind holes, tough superalloys, and high-speed through-holes in non-ferrous materials, with tool geometry selected to manage torque, chip evacuation, and pitch-diameter accuracy.
Core categories
Comprehensive Tapping Portfolio
Spiral Flute Taps
Helical flutes from 15° to 52° pull continuous chips upward and out of blind holes.
Straight Flute Taps
Developed for short-chipping materials such as cast iron and hardened steel, with rigid teeth for axial loading.
Thread Form Taps
Fluteless tools cold-form ductile materials to create threads without producing cutting chips.
Coolant-Through Taps
Internal helical or axial coolant channels support chip evacuation and thermal control at the cutting edge.

Material-specific capabilities
Engineered Geometries for Every Substrate
Aluminum & Non-Ferrous Alloys
Sharp cutting edges, positive rake angles, and DLC or TiN coating options help reduce smearing and built-up edge.
Stainless Steels & Superalloys
High-cobalt or solid-carbide substrates with AlTiN or nACo coating options support threading of 316L, Inconel, and titanium.
Hardened Steels
Rigid micro-grain carbide bodies with micro-honed tooth preparation support thread cutting in applications up to 60+ HRC.
Composites & Cast Irons
Wear-resistant carbide geometries and application-specific relief angles help manage abrasive pitch wear.
Custom Taps
Bespoke Threading Geometries & Custom Manufacturing
When standard sizes cannot meet the drawing, material, reach, or tolerance requirements, Bauron can review custom cutting and forming tap geometries for the intended machining process.
Discuss a Custom Tap- Custom pitch diameters, UNJ, Acme, Metric Fine, NPT, and application-specific tolerance classes
- Combination tools that drill, chamfer, and tap within one machining cycle
- Extended shanks for deep-cavity reach and non-standard neck diameters
- Manufacturing from technical CAD files, blueprints, or physical samples
Technical questions
Frequently Asked Questions About CNC Taps
What are the benefits of choosing a solid-carbide tap over HSS?
Solid-carbide taps provide greater hardness and wear resistance than standard HSS. They can support higher cutting speeds, retain pitch accuracy in abrasive materials, and manage heat during production runs when the setup is sufficiently rigid.
How do custom taps improve production efficiency in automated CNC setups?
Custom taps can combine chamfering and threading, target a specific pitch tolerance, and use flute helix angles selected for the workpiece material. This can reduce machine cycles and tooling changes.
Which tap geometry is recommended for blind-hole threading in ductile alloys?
A high-spiral flute tap with a 38° to 52° helix is commonly used for blind holes in ductile or sticky materials because the spiral pulls continuous chips upward and away from the cutting teeth.
Does Bauron manufacture thread-forming taps as well as cutting taps?
Bauron can review custom cutting-tap and fluteless roll-forming-tap requirements in carbide or cobalt HSS based on the workpiece hardness, thread specification, machine, and lubrication strategy.
