Threading Die & Tap Chip Removal Tool

Clean metal chips from threading dies and taps with the Indigo™ 22574 stainless steel precision pick. Remove packed debris from thread grooves for clean cutting and extended tool life.

Threading dies and taps accumulate metal chips in their flutes and relief grooves during use, leading to torn threads, increased cutting forces, and premature tool failure. Compressed air alone often can't dislodge chips that have been compressed into grooves by cutting pressure. The Indigo™ 22574 precision pick provides machinists and maintenance technicians with effective mechanical cleaning, the straight pointed tip extracts chips from thread grooves and flutes, while the right-angle tip accesses relief angles and chip pockets from different directions.

Use the Indigo™ 22574 metal chip cleaning dental pick on your expensive spiral-point taps and dies to extend tool life and ensure consistent thread quality.
