It is manufactured from 3% vanadium high speed steel, which provides increased wear resistance and edge retention compared to standard M2 HSS. The plug chamfer distributes cutting load across the leading threads for smooth entry in powered tapping operations. With a D6 thread limit, this tap produces threads with controlled oversize tolerance suitable for standard fastener fits. It is sized for M8 x 1.00 metric threads and is a right-hand cut tool intended for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and tapping arms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for production and job-shop environments where M8 x 1.00 metric through-hole threads are required in aluminum workpieces. The plug chamfer style makes it the standard choice for most through-hole tapping applications where chip evacuation out the back of the hole is acceptable. Its 22 mm thread length accommodates typical workpiece thicknesses encountered in fixture, structural, and general machined-component work. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM8 x 1.00 right-hand thread form for standard metric fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3% vanadium high speed steel construction for improved wear resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer with 3 flutes for smooth entry and controlled chip flow in through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD6 thread limit for consistent controlled-oversize tolerance on finished threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright finish with no coating, suitable for use with cutting oil in aluminum applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design not required — compatible with flood or manual lubrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for tapping M8 x 1.00 right-hand metric through-holes, primarily in aluminum.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before loading or unloading the tap. Use an appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the workpiece material to extend tool life and protect thread quality. Inspect the tap for chipping or wear regularly, as a damaged tap can seize in the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M8 x 1.00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Style\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: D6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 22 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 69 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.08 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vanadium High Speed Steel (3% Vanadium HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches L x 0.5 inches W x 0.5 inches H\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: T2680376\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732642562354,"sku":"T2680376","price":63.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6df00f2074a9431d89c500f3019016db.jpg?v=1788745356","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-t2680376-spiral-point-tap-m8-x-1-plug-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
