Bordo HSS Tap – Metric Coarse – Bottoming – 3 x 0.5mm

The Bordo 3 x 0.5mm HSS Bottoming Tap is engineered for producing full-depth internal threads in small-diameter holes, particularly in precision applications. Made from premium high-speed steel (HSS), it offers exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and long tool life, even when threading tough materials like stainless steel.

Featuring a short lead of just 1–2 threads, this bottoming tap is ideal for threading to the bottom of blind holes or for finishing threads started with a taper or intermediate tap. Manufactured to metric coarse (MC) specifications, it is suited for M3 fasteners with a 0.5mm pitch.

Key Features:

  • Size: M3 x 0.5mm (Metric Coarse)

  • Type: Bottoming tap – short lead for threading blind holes to full depth

  • Material: High-speed steel for strength and wear resistance

  • Thread Pitch: 0.5mm (standard metric coarse for M3)

  • Applications: Ideal for steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass, and other metals

  • Use: For hand or machine tapping, typically after taper or intermediate tap

  • Precision: Ground flutes for smooth cutting and accurate thread geometry

Compact yet durable, the Bordo HSS M3 x 0.5mm Bottoming Tap is perfect for precision engineering, electronics, and small-scale fabrication where accuracy is essential.
