Unlike cutting taps, thread forming taps displace material rather than removing chips, producing stronger threads with a smoother finish. This tap is manufactured from powdered metal high-speed steel and features a titanium nitride (TiN) coating that reduces friction and extends tool life. With a bottoming chamfer of 2.5 threads, it is built to form threads close to the bottom of a blind hole. It is suited for use by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians working in production or repair environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used for blind hole threading applications where a full thread depth close to the hole bottom is required. The bottoming chamfer design allows threading to within a minimal distance of the hole bottom, making it appropriate for tight-tolerance assemblies. It performs well in ductile metals such as aluminum, mild steel, and similar machinable alloys where material displacement is viable. It is a right-hand tap and requires a corresponding right-hand tapping operation. Technicians should select the correct drill size for thread forming per the tap manufacturer or standard references, as forming taps require a larger pilot hole than cutting taps for the same thread size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer with 2.5 chamfered threads for threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowdered metal high-speed steel construction for improved wear resistance and toughness compared to standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTitanium nitride (TiN) coating reduces friction and increases tool life in production applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming (chipless) design produces stronger threads by cold-working material rather than cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH5 thread limit and Class 2B fit for controlled thread tolerance in precision assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle oil groove design aids lubrication distribution during the tapping operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for forming 10-32 UNF right-hand internal threads in blind holes in ductile materials.

A quality cutting fluid or tapping lubricant appropriate for the workpiece material should be applied to reduce heat and extend tap life. Secure the workpiece fully before tapping to prevent movement. When using a hand tap wrench, apply steady, consistent pressure and back off periodically to distribute lubrication evenly through the oil groove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfered Threads\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Powdered Metal High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blind Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.600 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.194 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.152 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOil Grooves\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCUPRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12185-01T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732844446002,"sku":"12185-01T","price":46.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/28f5395e46a611f2f81144f86aa12d9e.jpg?v=1788747456","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12185-01t-10-32-unf-bottoming-thread-forming-tap-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
