Tapping Service
Tapping Service at Dipak Sales is used to create specified internal threads in metal components for fastening and assembly. The operation is important when a component must accept a matching threaded part with the thread size and form defined by the customer drawing.
Tapping is one of our listed machining services and can be combined with drilling and other operations when a component requires a complete sequence of machined features. Production is based on customer drawings, specifications and required quantities.
Threaded Holes Made to Specification
A tapped hole is a functional feature rather than simply a drilled opening. The thread needs to correspond with the specified mating fastener so that the component can be assembled correctly.
Where Tapping Adds Value
- Internal threaded holes for fastening
- Threaded features following drilling
- Components requiring repeatable thread dimensions
- Parts where threaded holes are integral to final assembly
- Multi-operation components combining turning, drilling, milling and tapping
Thread Verification
Our company profile lists thread plug gauges, thread ring gauges and thread measuring equipment among the available inspection resources. These tools support verification of applicable threaded features against the required specification.
Materials and Machining Requirements
Dipak Sales works with ETP copper, aluminium, phosphor bronze, lead-free brass alloys, low-lead brass alloys and copper alloys. The material and component geometry are considered together with the drawing when planning the machining route.
Integrated Component Manufacturing
Tapping can be introduced after an appropriate hole-making operation or combined with other machining stages, allowing a customer-specified component to progress through the required operations.
Industrial Components
Our broader precision metal component manufacturing activity supports automotive, electrical and electronics, fastening and fixtures, telecommunications, agriculture, hydraulic, medical technology, energy and data center applications.
