Hello there. I am trying to tap an M4 x .7 thread through about 10mm of a hard stainless steel. The material seems to have a hard spot at the end of the hole and my HSS M4 taper taps "squeak" and jam solid with about 3mm of the tap showing through the end of the hole. I have tried all the usual tapping lubricants.

Can anyone advise me where I can obtain a carbide tap at reasonable cost so that I can finish the job (ideally in the Leeds area).

Thanks

Thread: Difficulty renewing subscription

I received my subscription renewal reminder and rang the credit card hotline. I waited for about 15 minutes listening to the piped music before I gave up. Tried again a few times with the same result. Then tried to renew online, but the price offered was 25% more than that given in the reminder. Then posted a message in the online site but have yet to receive a reply. So after being a subscriber for the last 140 issues, I've given up.

Anyone else had the same experience?

Harry,

I have a spare handle for a No 2 Adept that you are welcome to if you can collect it from me in Leeds.

Regards
