Overview

Sized for M8 x 1 threads, this uxcell tap uses a straight flute design and comes paired with a 7.0mm reference size.

The M8 x 1 designation refers to an 8mm thread with a 1mm pitch, a fine thread size common in machine work, and the straight flute design is the simplest tap style for through holes in softer materials. The listed 7.0mm likely refers to the recommended tap drill size matched to this thread. Item weight is listed at 0.01 ounces, negligible for a small hand tool like this.

  • Thread size: M8 x 1
  • Straight flute design
  • 7.0mm reference size included
  • Item weight: 0.01 ounces

Who it's for

Useful for anyone cutting M8 x 1 fine threads by hand, such as repairing stripped threads or tapping new holes in metal or plastic. Not a fit if your project calls for the more common M8 x 1.25 coarse thread.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Matched to M8 x 1 fine pitch threads
  • Includes a 7.0mm reference drill size
Cons
  • Straight flute design clears chips less well in blind holes
  • Fine M8 x 1 pitch is less common than M8 x 1.25

Performance notes

Straight flute taps clear chips less efficiently than spiral point designs, so they work best in through holes and softer materials where chips can fall clear rather than pack into blind holes.
