How do Speedtaps work in an impact wrench?

Speedtaps have been engineered with changes to the heat treatment compared to most hand taps allowing them to take the impact from an impact wrench increasing productivity 14 to 1 over tapping by hand.

Is lubrication required?

Standard tapping oil is recommended to increase tool life. We will have our own tapping oil available for purchase.

How many holes can I thread with one SpeedTap™ when using an impact wrench?

Independent test results indicate approximately 200 holes can be threaded, representing hours of labor saved over the life of a SpeedTap™

Why don’t SpeedTaps™ go all the way through the hole?

Our full-size shaft maximizes strength as well as aids in the easy reversal of a SpeedTap™ from the work.

What makes a SpeedTap™ last?

The SpeedTap™ is driven through the hole at a constant speed when using an impact driver. The conventional hand driven tap is rotated around the hole at irregular speeds increasing the torque demands on the tap possibly causing breakage.
