Overview
Frame Tap Park Tool TAP-8 5mmx0.8mm
The Park Tool TAP-8 is a professional frame tap for cleaning, chasing and restoring M5 x 0.8 threads. A frame tap can become a real lifesaver for almost any bicycle mechanic, as small threaded fittings on frames can become dirty, damaged, painted over or affected by corrosion over time.
The TAP-8 is designed for M5 x 0.8 threading, commonly found on frame fittings such as water bottle mounts, toe clip fittings, and fender and rack bosses. It helps restore clean and accurate threads so bolts can be installed smoothly and securely.
As with all Park Tool taps, the TAP-8 is made from high carbon steel and precision ground for accurate, clean cutting performance. It is compatible with conventional tap handles and is well suited for professional workshop use as well as a well-equipped home mechanic’s tool collection.
