Built from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this tap features a taper chamfer that progressively engages the workpiece to ease thread starting and reduce torque demand. The 3-flute straight-flute geometry evacuates chips through the entry of the hole, making it well-suited for both blind-hole and through-hole threading operations. Overall length is 1.75 inches with a thread length of 0.44 inches and a shank diameter of 0.141 inches. Class of fit is 6H with a D3 thread limit for consistent thread tolerance control in precision applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use in manual hand-tapping setups, tapping fixtures, or low-speed machine tapping where straight-flute chip evacuation is appropriate. Suitable material applications include alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, and free-machining stainless steel. It is a strong fit for maintenance, repair, and fabrication work where M2 metric coarse threads are required in small-diameter through or blind holes. Part of the CLEVELAND Series 1001 tap line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2x0.40 metric coarse thread form for small-diameter precision threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaper chamfer for progressive thread engagement and easier starting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute straight-flute design handles both blind-hole and through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides durability across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with standard cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6H class of fit with D3 thread limit for consistent tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in blind-hole and through-hole threading applications in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, and free-machining stainless steel workpieces requiring M2x0.40 metric coarse threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eHand taps of this size are installed and driven by machinists or tooling technicians using a tap wrench or compatible tapping fixture. Always apply an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material before and during tapping to reduce friction and extend tap life. For blind holes, clear chips frequently by reversing the tap to avoid packing and breakage. Broken tap removal in hardened materials is difficult at this diameter, so avoid excessive torque and do not force the tap past resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2 x 0.40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.40 mm\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: 6H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: D3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Flute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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: 1.75 inches (44.45 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.44 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 inches (3.58 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (4.76 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.110 inches (2.79 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blind Hole Threading, Through-Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Carbon Steel, Free-Machining Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLEVELAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C54073\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694185775410,"sku":"C54073","price":50.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a9d939e308aab8ea0b42576d323480df.jpg?v=1788321413","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c54073-hand-tap-m2x0-40-taper-hss-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
