Taper Tap & Box Tap Fishing Tools Application & Running
Box taps and taper taps fishing tools are two types of attachments that are used in fishing operations to screw into a fish. Box types have threads on the ID, which cut threads into the OD of the fish, externally engaging the pipe. Taper types are used to engage the inside of a fish where conventional releasing spears would not be feasible. They can be ordered with right-hand or left-hand wickers and the normal taper is ¾" per foot.
