Ridgid 358 Series Carbon Steel NPT Pipe Tap, Right Hand
The Ridgid 358 Series is a family of carbon steel NPT pipe taps engineered for cutting clean, accurate NPT threads in tight, restricted work areas. Available across six model options (35815, 35820, 35825, 35830, 35835, 35840) covering a range of NPT thread sizes, these taps are manufactured in a right hand configuration only and feature the standard NPT taper of 3/4" per foot to ensure proper thread engagement and sealing on every connection.
