The reverse drive will retract the tap faster than the forward drive, considerably increasing production. The tapping head mechanism has a cushioned drive providing a self-feed action, ensuring pitch perfect threads.

The cushion drive easily allows a pre-tapped hole to be re-aligned, eliminating cross threading. The collet chuck on the head uses round rubber flex collets to adjust size and locate the tap.
