This pneumatic tapping motor turns machine taps from M3 to M24 in four models: 0312 and M12 for M3 to M12, M16 for M3 to M16, and M24 for M5 to M24. It runs on compressed air and takes overload-protection tap chucks on a 19 mm shank, so one motor covers a full range of thread sizes. Buy the motor alone, with 2 chucks, or with a full chuck set.

Key Benefits

  • 4 models, M3 to M24: 0312 and M12 tap M3 to M12, M16 taps M3 to M16, M24 taps M5 to M24.
  • 3 speed classes: 400 RPM on 0312 and M12, 250 RPM on M16, 90/250 RPM on M24.
  • 6, 8 or 9 chucks in the full set: 6 chucks (M3 to M12) for 0312 and M12, 8 (M3 to M16) for M16, 9 (M5 to M24) for M24.
  • 6-8 kgf/cm² air supply: 0.59-0.78 MPa, 85-114 psi, the same for all 4 models.
  • 1.75 kg and 300-310 mm for the M3 to M16 models; 3.7 kg and 405 mm for M24.

Applications and Industries

Who it’s for

  • Workshops tapping internal threads in metal workpieces from M3 to M24.
  • Shops that tap M12 and smaller holes at 400 RPM, M16 holes at 250 RPM, or M24 holes at 90/250 RPM.
  • Buyers who want the motor and its chucks supplied together, as 2 chucks or a set of 6, 8 or 9.
  • Sites with a compressed-air supply of 6-8 kgf/cm².

Not for

  • Thread sizes above M24.
  • Workshops without compressed air: the motor needs a 6-8 kgf/cm² supply.
  • Buyers who need a tapping arm or stand: the package is the motor with its chuck holder and the chucks only.

Results in use

Pneumatic tapping motor results in use on a metal workpiece, threaded holes before, during and after tapping

What's in the Box

FAQ

What is a pneumatic tapping motor?

It is a compressed-air motor, also called an air tapping motor, that drives a machine tap through a tap chuck to cut internal threads. This one covers M3 to M24 across four models.

How much air pressure does a tapping motor need?

All four models need 6-8 kgf/cm² (0.59-0.78 MPa, 85-114 psi).

Which pneumatic tapping motor is right for M12 holes?

Choose the 0312 or the M12 model: both tap M3 to M12 at 400 RPM. The 0312 is 300 mm long with a 44 mm holder; the M12 is 310 mm long with a 38 mm or 44 mm holder.

What is the difference between the M12, M16 and M24 models?

They differ in tap range, speed, weight and length: M12 taps M3 to M12 at 400 RPM (1.75 kg, 310 mm), M16 taps M3 to M16 at 250 RPM (1.75 kg, 310 mm), and M24 taps M5 to M24 at 90/250 RPM (3.7 kg, 405 mm).

Do I need the 38 mm, 44 mm or 56 mm holder?

Pick the holder diameter that matches your mounting. The M12 model comes in 38 mm or 44 mm, the 0312 in 44 mm, the M16 in 44/56 mm and the M24 in 56 mm.

Should I buy the motor only, with 2 chucks, or with the chuck set?

Buy the motor only if you already have compatible overload-protection tap chucks, take 2 chucks if you tap 2 thread sizes, and take the set to cover every chuck size for your model (6, 8 or 9 chucks).

How do I order 2 tap chucks in the sizes I need?

Choose the Motor + 2 Chucks option and write the 2 chuck sizes in the order note, or contact customer service after ordering. For example, for M6 and M10 holes, note M6/8 and M10.

Can I tap M16 or M24 threads with this motor?

Yes. Choose the M16 model for taps from M3 to M16 and the M24 model for taps from M5 to M24.

How to Choose

Match the model to your largest tap: 0312 or M12 for M12 and smaller, M16 for M16, M24 for M24. Then pick the holder diameter and the package, motor only, 2 chucks, or the set.
