Multi-Finish Mirco Edge Preparation for Even Better Performance
These taps, from #4 to 1" in diameter, will also go through the additional process of Multi-Finish Micro Edge Preparation to further extend tool life. This process removes even the smallest of burrs from the cutting tool surface, making them more effective and further enhancing the benefits of the coating.
The process of Multi-Finish Micro Edge Preparation is another value-added benefit incorporated into the manufacturing process to further improve tool quality and delay the onset of tool degradation.
