Thread Cleaning Tap - 11mm x 2.00

The Thread Cleaning Tap - 11mm x 2.00 by ARP is a precision-engineered thread chaser designed to clean, repair, and restore damaged or corroded metric threads in machinery, engines, and industrial equipment. This universal steel tap serves technicians, machinists, and maintenance professionals who need to recondition fastener holes without full re-tapping. Whether you're restoring vintage engines, repairing stripped bolt holes, or preparing surfaces for new fasteners, this tap removes debris and oxidation while restoring thread integrity to near-original condition.

Manufactured from durable hardened steel, the Thread Cleaning Tap - 11mm x 2.00 features a 2.00mm pitch specification suited to metric applications across automotive, aerospace, and general fabrication work. The male thread design allows the tap to engage existing threaded holes, cutting away corrosion, scale, and minor damage while following the original thread profile. At 5.75 inches in length with a 0.55-inch diameter body, this compact tap fits into confined spaces and integrates smoothly into standard tap wrench setups. The steel construction resists wear during repeated use and maintains sharp cutting edges through multiple applications.

This tap is ideal for restoring 11mm metric threads commonly found in European vehicles, motorcycles, industrial pumps, and engine blocks where fasteners experience vibration or chemical exposure. Installation requires a standard tap wrench or hand-turn setup; manual operation provides superior feedback and control when working with delicate or partially stripped holes. The universal design works across most applications requiring metric thread cleaning without the expense of full re-tapping or thread inserts. Technicians and DIY enthusiasts benefit from its affordability, precision fit, and proven performance in both shop and field environments.
