Cleveland C54377 M5-0.80 tap kit

The Cleveland C54377 is a three-piece straight-flute hand tap kit for cutting M5-0.80 metric threads. It is designed for mechanics and fabricators who need to create or repair internal threads in steel, aluminium or plastic using hand tools or a tap wrench.

Verify thread size drill size and material

Before ordering confirm that the hole you will tap matches the 75 percent thread drill size of 4.20 mm. The taps are made from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish and a 6H class of fit, so they suit general-purpose ferrous and non-ferrous metals but are not intended for hardened alloys or abrasive composites.

Steady cutting with four-flute geometry

Under sustained hand or low-speed machine use the four-flute design evacuates chips evenly and reduces the risk of tap breakage. The 15/16 inch thread length and 2 3/8 inch overall length give sufficient reach for through-holes and blind-holes alike while the right-hand thread direction follows standard metric convention.

Questions about this item

Does the Cleveland C54377 kit include the 4.20 mm drill bit or must it be purchased separately?

The three-piece tap kit contains three straight-flute hand taps; the 4.20 mm drill bit for the 75 percent thread drill size is not included and must be bought separately.

Which tap from the M5-0.80 set should I start with for a through-hole in steel?

Begin with the taper tap from the three-piece set, follow with the plug tap, then finish with the bottoming tap to cut full threads to the bottom of a through-hole.

What does the 15/16 in thread length mean when tapping an M5 hole?

The 15/16 in thread length is the maximum depth of full-form threads each tap can cut in a single pass; deeper holes require multiple passes or a longer tap.
