VersaDrive® Heavy Duty Impacta-Drill Taps are an industrial metalwork or fabrication tool for drilling and tapping heavy steel in one easy operation.
Primarily they are designed to be used with a reversible Magnet drill, although they can also be adapted for use with an impact wrench to enlarge and tap existing holes.
With a drill point optimised for use in fixed drilling machines like Magnetic Drills or Pillar drills, these are not recommended for use in a pistol drill. Where they are to used with an impact wrench to enlarge and tap holes pilot drilling is recommended with a separate drill bit.

Impact Chipbreaker action for effective swarf evacuation
Heavy duty straight flute design creates a strong and durable tool
Ground flute twist drill creates the correct pilot hole size
Rated for heavy duty plate thicknesses
Industrial grade Titanium Nitride coating reduces heat buildup and burn-out
Use on Impact to prevent dangerous kickback caused by handheld rotary tools
Heavy-duty hex shank design for secure non-slip operation
Impact-rated due to dual hardening process - allows up to 15X faster speed than traditional methods
Maximum tapping depth = 1-3/8" Total Length 5-33/64" • Ideal for use in Pillar Drills & Magnet Drills • Correct RPM is critical for good performance on larger sizes • For Impact Wrench use, pilot drilling is recommended • Use appropriate lubrication and correct RPM to achieve long tool life
