ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an improved standardized blank adapted for making taps for making tapped holes and an improved positive lock tap holder. A standardized tap blank is provided which is standardized as to diameter, overall length, and shank length. Such a blank is adapted to manufacture a wide range of taps of varying thread sizes, both U.S. and British standards, and metric standard. For broadening the range of capacities that the blanks are adapted for, a set is provided including two additional standardized blanks, standardized as to a different diameter shank length and overall length. Each standardized blank is provided with a square end, standardized as to the square sides and overall length. The standardized tap blanks are further provided with an annular groove to for holding balls. The annular groove is provided at a precise predetermined distance from the radial shoulders at the inner part of the square end to assure that the axial thrust acting on the tap will be taken by the radial shoulders rather than the balls. The quick release holder is provided with a ball holder which is a positive lock ring which can hold the balls in the annular groove in the tap and release them from it. The lock ring is positively held against rotation. The holder's structure can be built into the driver or tapping attachment itself.
