   Handtap No. 2 of a serial tap set consists
   of 3 taps.
   This tap cannot finish the thread because
   it is serial form, (major & pitch diameters
   below the basic thread dimensions).
   3 thread chamfer lead.
   Rake angle 8°÷10°.

   Handtap No. 3 of a serial tap set consists
   of 3 or 2 taps.
   This tap finishes the thread to the
