- Reversible Centering Design: With reversible tension pin, Brown & Sharpe tap guide supports both male and female hole centering, allowing alignment on drilled holes, tap shanks, or shaft centers.
- Adjustable Spring Tension: Adjustable spring tension provides consistent axial pressure, helping stabilize the tap and maintain controlled engagement while threading.
