Jiffy-Tap
Features:
- Spindle spline engagement is 2-1/2". Strokes up to 2-1/8" may be used. Tap units are available with longer strokes.
- Choice of lead screws from 6 to 40 threads per inch, Class 3 thread. Metric, left hand and special leads are available with many in stock; consult factory. The lead screw can be changed in the field in less than 10 minutes by changing the lead screw spindle and its matching lead screw nut.
- Jiffy-Tap allows the use of smaller diameter rotary tables and shorter linear movement when building transfer type machines. This allows more tapped holes per work piece, and more tapping stations in a given space.
- Tap torque can be adjusted with the relief valve on the remote hydraulic power unit, which furnishes power for the Jiffy-Tap motor. The tap can be stalled without damage to the Jiffy-Tap or to the hydraulic power unit.
- Jiffy-Tap units weigh approximately 28 Lbs., and can readily be moved from one machine to another because of the line-up slot in the base. If hydraulic quick couplers and the optional electrical plug-in harness are used, the Jiffy-Tap unit can be rapidly re-located.
- Jiffy-Tap units can be used with multiple tap heads with mounted guide rods. Each standard unit will handle up to six 3/8" N.C. taps in cast iron, and larger or more taps in brass or aluminum, or at reduced RPM.
- Jiffy-Tap can be used as a portable tapping unit with a slide-in fixture for large parts. They can be mounted in any position.
- Jiffy-Tap when driven by a hydraulic motor can be reversed 120 times a minute without damage.
- Jiffy-Tap is a heavy duty unit; it has been used for many years on tough production jobs. (Very Popular with the high production Detroit parts manufacturers.)
- The hydraulic motor on the back of the unit can be rotated in 90° increments to meet your installation needs.
