A thread tap includes a shaft and teeth. The shaft includes helical passages from the threading end to the base end of the shaft. Each passage opens through an aperture in the threading end. A second tap includes a cap and the shaft includes an axially extending passage. The cap is coupled to the threading end and at least partially defines apertures in fluid communication with the passage and the exterior of the tap. A third tap includes teeth spaced apart by a plurality of linear flutes. The shaft includes a central passage and a plurality of flute passages. Each flute passage extends radially outward from a common location in the central passage to a corresponding one of the flutes. The central passage is closed to a terminal end of the threading end.

A die for a pipe threading operation includes a body portion formed of a first material, and a tooth portion coupled to the body portion and formed of a second material that is different than the first material. The tooth portion having a plurality of teeth.

A thread milling tool for producing a thread. The thread milling tool comprises a tool holder, which extends along a central axis and comprises a first slot-shaped cutting insert receptacle having two opposing lateral abutment surfaces and a base abutment surface arranged between the two lateral abutment surfaces and extending transversely thereto, the abutment surface forming a base of the first slot-shaped cutting insert receptacle. The thread milling tool further comprises a first cutting insert, which is fixed in the first cutting insert receptacle in a firmly bonded manner, wherein the first cutting insert comprises a base body having two opposing lateral surfaces, which abut against the two lateral abutment surfaces of the first cutting insert receptacle or are connected in a firmly bonded manner thereto, and having a lower side arranged between the two lateral surfaces and extending transversely thereto, wherein the lower surface abuts against or is connected in a firmly bonded manner to the base abutment surface of the first cutting insert receptacle, and wherein the first cutting insert comprises at least one cutting tooth that projects outwardly from the base body beyond the first cutting insert receptacle and comprises two main cutting edges for producing two opposing flanks of the thread.
