Emuge-Franken Taps Introduce Universal Threading Geometry for NPT/NPTF Applications!

Emuge-Franken USA has launched its MultiTap NPT/NPTF pipe taps, which feature universal threading geometry designed for both job shops and production tapping. These advanced taps offer a specialized, shortened projection length, providing significant benefits over traditional ANSI standard taper taps by decreasing cycle time and increasing tool life.

Key Features of the MultiTap NPT/NPTF Taps:

• Specialized, Shortened Projection Length: Compared to conventional taper taps, this reduces cycle time and extends tool life, providing greater efficiency and value for users.
• Universal Threading Geometry: These taps cater to both NPT and NPTF threading needs, ensuring versatility for various applications in industries such as oil, gas, and petrochemical manufacturing.
• Interrupted Skip Tooth Thread Profile: This feature helps to reduce cutting forces and prevent chip clogging, further enhancing tool performance during high-volume tapping operations.
• Premium HSSE Base Tool Substrate and TiCN PVD Coating: The taps are coated with TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride), improving their wear resistance and extending their tool life, even in demanding applications.
• C-Style Semibottoming Chamfer: The two-to-three teeth semibottoming chamfer ensures better thread profile and consistency.
• Enhanced Flute Helix Angle: The NPT tap uses a 35-degree right-hand helix while the NPTF tap utilizes a 15-degree right-hand helix, optimized for the specific thread profiles.

The MultiTap NPT/NPTF taps are particularly well-suited for applications in high-pressure pipe delivery systems, valves, fire suppression systems, and food and dairy equipment. The taps meet all industry standard requirements for gaging and are ideal for the energy sector, especially where high-performance tapping solutions are required.

Emuge-Franken’s innovative MultiTap taps address the needs of a wide range of industries, with a specific focus on oil, gas, and petrochemical sectors. Their durability and efficiency make them an optimal solution for critical applications in demanding environments.

Dylan Bowles, Product Director at Emuge-Franken USA, remarked, “We are pleased to offer energy manufacturers a versatile pipe tapping solution designed to meet and exceed even the most difficult applications for the oil, gas, and petrochemical manufacturing sectors.”

Emuge-Franken’s MultiTap NPT/NPTF pipe taps are the go-to solution for manufacturers seeking reliable, high-performance tools to tackle complex and high-precision threading requirements across a variety of challenging sectors.
