The Taper Tap is an internal catch fishing tool designed to retrieve bubular members from the well bore. It is the most economical tool of its kind for freeing fish.
Construction:
The Taper Tap is manufactured from high grade alloy and specially heat treated. The basic Taper Tap is a single piece construction. The hardened cutting teeth (wickers) are carbo-nitrided and machined on a shallow taper (approximately 3/4 inch per food) to provide an excellent grip for light duty pick-up jobs. Plain water-tight wickers are furnished as standard equipment. Fluted wickers are also available on request. Taper Taps are furnished either plain or threaded for skirts.
