The RIDGID 35855 – 2″ Pipe Tap-NPT is a high-quality threading tool designed for cutting internal threads in pipes with a nominal size of 2 inches. Made from high carbon steel, this tap is built for durability and precision, especially in restricted area work where maneuverability is limited. It features a right-hand cutting configuration and a ¾-inch taper per foot, which ensures smooth thread engagement and reduces the risk of cross-threading. The tool is clearly marked with the required drill size (2-13/64″) for the pilot hole, simplifying setup and ensuring accurate threading every time.
Engineered for professional use in plumbing, fabrication, and industrial maintenance, the RIDGID 35855 conforms to NPT (National Pipe Taper) standards, making it suitable for creating secure, leak-resistant threaded joints. Its compact dimensions (approximately 3 x 3 x 5.5 inches) and manageable weight (around 3.15 pounds) make it easy to handle, even in tight spaces. Backed by RIDGID’s lifetime warranty, this pipe tap is a reliable investment for tradespeople who demand consistent performance and long-term value.
