Carbon steel (Mainly refers to gcr15 in China) taps can be a good choice for certain applications, particularly for hand tapping, threads cleaning, and repairing, but they may not be ideal for high-volume cutting or tapping on hard materials . They tend to dull more quickly than high-speed steel (HSS) taps
