Quick Change Tap Adapters without Torque Limiter
For quick changing of the tap and adapter, the adapter has to be chosen according to the tap shank diameter and its square size. Both dimensions are in relation to norms DIN, ISO, and PIPE, which also covers thread size. Suitable for taps with or without a through-coolant channel.
The torque of an adapter with a torque limiter is set according to the thread size when delivered. Therefore, a tap with the same shank diameter and same square size, but with a different pitch (e.g. ∅6 x 4.9 comes in M5 and M6) cannot be substituted. For adapters without a torque limiter they can, as only tap shank diameter and square are critical.
