Bordo – 1/2″ x 13 UNC Intermediate HSS Tap | 3032-1/2I
The Bordo 1/2″ x 13 UNC Intermediate HSS Tap is a precision-engineered threading tool from Bordo’s professional High Speed Steel range, designed for reliable internal thread cutting in hand or machine applications. Built to deliver consistent and durable performance in workshop and trade environments, this tap is ideal for creating UNC (Unified National Coarse) threads in a wide variety of materials.
Manufactured from premium High Speed Steel (HSS) and featuring an intermediate lead (four threads), this tap cuts true to a pre-drilled pilot hole for strong, accurate thread engagement. The 1/2″ major diameter with 13 threads per inch (TPI) matches the standard UNC form commonly used in bolt and fastener assemblies, making it a versatile choice for threading into medium tensile materials such as aluminium, bronze, brass, plastics and mild steels. This intermediate HSS tap is suitable for both hand and general machine use, giving tradies dependable performance across general-purpose threading tasks.
Bordo has established a long-standing reputation in Australia for producing dependable, trade-grade cutting tools, and Industrial Shed ensures fast access to these trusted HSS taps when you need them on site or in the workshop.
