What Is Drilling and Tapping?

Drilling and tapping machines may vary in size from a small countertop model to a large-scale, heavy-duty machine used for manufacturing. The size and type of drilling and tapping mechanism that is used depends on the type of material that needs to be drilled or tapered, the accuracy that is needed, and the length of thread that is to be formed.

Various types of taps include:

  • Bottoming taps – Engineered to cut a thread to the bottom of a blind hole.
  • Hand taps – Utilized for general projects with blind and through holes.
  • Taper taps – Designed to gradually thread a hole in materials that may break or are difficult to cut.
  • Plug taps – For holes that go through the material, or if there is room at the bottom of a blind hole.
  • Spiral pointed taps – Used for deep hole tapping.
