A bone tap may be used to deliver fluid into bone to stabilize and/or strengthen the bone. The bone tap may include a passage. A distal portion of the bone tap may be threaded. In some embodiments, openings in a distal portion of the bone tap may communicate with the passage. The bone tap may be driven into bone, and material may be introduced to the passage. Material introduced to the passage may enter the bone through the openings. Thread flights of the bone tap proximal to the openings may inhibit retrograde backflow of material during introduction of the material into the bone. Material deposited in the bone may strengthen a bone and/or augment fixation of a bone fastener in the bone.
