The two all-rounders, Walter Prototyp Paradur® Eco Plus and Prototex® Eco Plus, are universal high performance HSS-E-PM taps for use in long-chipping and short-chipping materials up to tensile strengths of around 1,300 N/mm². These tool ranges are extremely strong all-rounders and are suitable for machining the most diverse of materials.
Facts and advantages:
the THL hard material coating and an additional surface treatment guarantee outstanding tool life with no cold welding
versions with radial and axial coolant outlet specifically for use with minimum quantity lubrication
high degree of process reliability, even for deep blind and through hole threads, thanks to secure chip management
