They have better threads, stronger threads, the taps are stronger. They work in most steel, alum, many plastics. And NO CHIPS.
In the last 3-4 years I've been using form taps almost exclusively. (Unless I'm doing Remec parts, which they specify cut threads) I haven't broken one yet. No, really. Not even one!
Err, wait, I did break one; used a cutting tap's drill instead of the form tap's.
