It features an 8-36 thread size, 3 flutes, and a plug chamfer that helps start the tap squarely and drive chips forward ahead of the cutting edge. Constructed from 3% Vanadium High Speed Steel (HSS), the tap offers improved wear resistance and edge retention over standard HSS tooling. The bright finish provides a clean, uncoated surface suited for general-purpose threading. With an overall length of 2.125 inches and a 13 mm thread length, this tap fits standard tap holders and is appropriate for use by machinists, tool-and-die professionals, and maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for threading through-holes in steel and similar ferrous materials in general machining, fabrication, and maintenance-repair-operations (MRO) environments. The spiral point design pushes chips forward rather than backing them out, making it well-suited for CNC tapping cycles and hand-tapping in through-hole bores. The H3 thread limit produces threads within a controlled tolerance range appropriate for standard fastener fits in steel workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry drives chips forward, reducing clogging in through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3% Vanadium HSS construction for improved hardness and edge retention versus standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer (3-5 thread lead) for easy starting and general-purpose through-hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit for controlled tolerance fits in steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright finish — uncoated surface suitable for use with a wide range of cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, compatible with standard tap holders and CNC spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose 8-36 spiral point tap compatible with standard tap holders accepting a 4.27 mm shank diameter.

Always ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the spindle is aligned perpendicular to the bore before starting the thread. Apply a suitable cutting fluid for steel to extend tool life and improve thread finish. Do not reverse the tap under power without confirming the machine cycle supports rigid tapping or a tension-compression holder is in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-36\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3% Vanadium High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright (uncoated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches (53.98 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.27 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: T2640303\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51753907880242,"sku":"T2640303","price":29.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8df3e47b0add032c981ee9f00ebe0254_82e8b27d-53b1-4f98-9e9f-1ccb24ef082f.jpg?v=1788941978","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-t2640303-spiral-point-tap-8-36-3-flutes-plug","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
