- The thread form has rounded roots and crests and is specified in BS84:1956.
- The major diameter of external thread and pitch are specified by a simple numerical value (most commonly measured in millimetres).
- Bottoming Taps have a lead of two threads and are used to ensure minimum thread run-out when tapping to the bottom of a blind hole.
- Taper Taps have a lead of eight threads and are used as a starting tap in difficult or high precision holes.
- Intermediate Taps have a lead of four threads and are used in most general purpose applications to cut a thread true to a pre-drilled pilot hole.
- Bottoming Taps are typically preceded by the use of a Taper or Intermediate Tap.
