The taper tap is a special tool cutting thread and fishing internally in dropped objects such as tubing, drill-pipe, wash-over pipe, packer, water flow allocators, and down-hole production allocators. The tool is especially a great success in catching objects accompanied by couplings. The taper tap can affect different fishing operations when equipped with RH thread or LH thread drill pipes and other tools.
The Taper Tap is a specialized internal engagement fishing tool designed for retrieving tubular objects from a wellbore. Manufactured according to API Spec 7-1, it is engineered to cut threads into stuck pipes, drill pipes, packers, and other downhole objects, allowing for a firm grip and efficient retrieval.
Efficient Retrieval – Ensures a firm grip on the fish, preventing slippage and maximizing fishing success.
Enhanced Strength – Special heat-treatment process improves durability for extended tool life.
Customizable Sizes – Available in multiple configurations to match various downhole conditions.
Minimizes Wellbore Damage – Designed to engage the fish internally without harming the surrounding wellbore.

Constructed from high-grade alloy steel, the taper tap undergoes a special heat-treatment process, ensuring enhanced durability, resistance to wear, and superior performance under high-pressure conditions. Available in a variety of sizes, the taper tap can be customized with right-hand (RH) or left-hand (LH) thread configurations to suit different wellbore conditions and operational needs.
The Taper Tap is a specialized internal engagement fishing tool designed for retrieving tubular objects from a wellbore. Manufactured according to API Spec 7-1, it is engineered to cut threads into stuck pipes, drill pipes, packers, and other downhole objects, allowing for a firm grip and efficient retrieval.
This tool is commonly used in oil and gas drilling, well intervention, and workover operations, especially for fishing tubular objects that have internal diameters suitable for threading. Unlike external fishing tools, the taper tap engages the inner diameter (ID) of the fish, making it ideal for operations where external gripping tools are not feasible.
