BOY ! O BOY !
Someone could really clean up with extended reach STI taps!
I can't find anything over the standard reach tap for "in machine" tapping STI

How long are you wanting? What can you find? I would think Emuge would have something, maybe OSG.
Or maybe have Regal quote you some.

I got a couple of 12" pipe taps from a company called GWS tool group. You might want to check there.

We have some extended reach STI taps from GWS but I'm 99% sure they were a custom order.

was looking for aa 4" overall length, talked to OSG. rep no joy , did mention that if they did start a pully tap length on the STI taps they would clean up, said he would take it to the meeting.

the issue was there's no clearance a double compound angle on a fifth axis part kinda deal. I did end up making a .25 dia shrink fit extension to get there from here.

Similiar to Newbeeee, we used to silver solder taps in shop made extensions
