The square shank is compatible with all standard tap handles or tap wrenches and the taper style is designed for gradual starts while cutting threads. Engineered for durability, our Milwaukee® straight flute plug taps are designed for cutting threads in the most common metal applications including brass, aluminum, mild steel and more.
