The Yamawa taps VUSP (spiral fluted taps for blind holes) and VUPO (spiral pointed taps for through holes) are designed to deliver top performances both in mass production and small batches applications, without jeopardizing performance, reliability, and quality.
VUSP and VUPO taps are developed to obtain continuous and reliable tapping, as well as to significantly extend the tool life thanks to exceptional chip evacuation. They are designed to be used in modern multi-function machining centers, allowing the users to obtain the highest performances on different materials, such as steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. VU taps feature an innovative flute design allowing optimal chip control and lower cutting forces resulting in excellent finishing quality of the internal threads.
They are made with premium quality powder high-speed steel, produced based on Yamawa’s specifications and feature a new special coating to maximize wear resistance.
