LL Receding Chaser Collapsible Taps

A receding chaser type tap primarily intended to produce
longer length American Petroleum Institute (API) threads.
Can also be used to cut NPT and BSTP taper pipe as well as
straight threads.
Four bodies with twenty-six standard tap heads allow 1"
to 12" nominal pipe sizes to be tapped.
Leadscrew or positive feed is required.
As the tap moves forward, the chasers recede into the tap head at the rate needed to produce
the desired taper. The taper rate is controlled by a precise receding mechanism acting in consort
with the leadscrew.
Usually supplied with a receding lever to produce 3/4" taper per foot. Other receding levers are
available to cut 0 to 2" taper per foot or straight threads.
Normally supplied for right-hand tapping, the LL can also be supplied with tap heads and chasers
for left-hand work.
The standard stationary tap can be converted to a revolving tap by removing the setup handle and
setting up the tap with a yoke.

2 LLSR Collapsible Taps
A receding chaser type tap supplied where overall
length restriction prevents the use of the longer LL Tap.
The LLSR's overall length is 10-1/16" regardless of the
size tap head used.
The 2 LLSR tap body can be supplied with 1-1/4",
1-1/2", and 2" size heads to produce threads on 1-1/4",
1-1/2", and 2" NPT, BSTP, and API line pipe without
chaser leave off marks.
Usually supplied to produce 3/4" taper per foot, it can be adapted with suitable receding levers to
produce other taper rates.  Installation of an anchor locks out the receding motion and allows
straight threads to be tapped.
Banjo slots permit quick and easy interchange of tap heads.
Available for stationary or revolving applications.
Chasers are identical and interchange with those supplied for comparable size LL tap heads.
Must be used with leadscrew or positive feed to provide the proper feed rate to the receding
mechanism.
