Unlike cutting taps, thread forming taps displace material rather than remove it, producing stronger threads with no chips to clear. This tap is manufactured from powdered metal high-speed steel and coated with titanium nitride (TiN) for improved wear resistance and longer tool life. The plug chamfer with 4 chamfered threads provides a gradual lead-in, making it well suited for general-purpose tapping in a range of workpiece materials. It is used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool and die professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for through-hole threading operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a Class 3B thread fit is required. The right-hand thread direction and H5 thread limit make it a standard choice for precision threading in production and maintenance environments. With a tapping depth of 1.125 inches and a thread length of 0.88 inches, it handles typical through-hole depths encountered in general machining and repair work. A single oil groove aids lubrication during the forming process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming design displaces material for chip-free, stronger threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowdered metal high-speed steel construction for consistent hardness and toughness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTitanium nitride (TiN) coating reduces friction and extends tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer (4 chamfered threads) for gradual thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH5 thread limit with Class 3B fit for precision thread tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, suitable for standard tapping equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for through-hole threading of 5\/16-18 UNC threads in materials compatible with thread forming operations, including low-carbon steel, aluminum, and other ductile metals.

Ensure the tapping drill size matches the recommended hole diameter for thread forming, as it differs from cutting tap requirements. Secure the workpiece and use a properly aligned tap holder or tapping head to prevent tap breakage. Always follow applicable shop safety practices when operating drilling and tapping equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfered Threads\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Through-Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.7188 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.88 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.318 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.238 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOil Grooves\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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\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: 13105-00T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732357087538,"sku":"13105-00T","price":57.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5a74980a0a49914845c1ed797e9d2b61.jpg?v=1788742013","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-13105-00t-thread-forming-tap-5-16-18-unc-plug-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
