Built from 3% vanadium high speed steel (HSS), it delivers greater wear resistance than standard M2 HSS taps, making it well-suited for production tapping in aluminum and other non-ferrous materials. The modified bottoming chamfer allows the tap to thread close to the bottom of a blind hole while still providing adequate lead-in guidance. With a 40-degree helix angle and right-hand spiral flute geometry, chips are ejected upward out of the hole, reducing the risk of chip packing and breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for hand tapping and machine tapping operations in light manufacturing, maintenance, and repair environments. The 8-32 thread size is common in electrical enclosures, electronics assemblies, panel hardware, and light structural fastening. The modified bottoming style makes it a practical choice when thread depth requirements are close to the bottom of a drilled hole. It is appropriate for use in aluminum, which is listed as the primary material application in the manufacturer specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3% Vanadium HSS construction for improved wear resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree right-hand spiral flute ejects chips upward out of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer threads close to hole bottom with guided lead-in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish compatible with cutting fluids standard for aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH5 thread limit for controlled fit tolerance in precision fastening applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction matches standard 8-32 fastener specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for tapping 8-32 unified coarse threads in aluminum.

Always use an appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound when threading aluminum to reduce friction and extend tool life. Ensure the drilled hole diameter is correct for an 8-32 thread before tapping, and secure the workpiece firmly to prevent movement. Do not force the tap if resistance increases suddenly, as spiral flute taps in blind holes can break if chips are not cleared properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Modified Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\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: 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\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.00 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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\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: T2644285\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737197216050,"sku":"T2644285","price":41.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f5e0c8a2b654c4b429f19ebfc0d1e0ef.jpg?v=1788785497","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-t2644285-spiral-flute-tap-8-32-2-flute-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
