It is ground from high speed steel (HSS) and coated with titanium nitride (TiN) for extended tool life and reduced friction against the workpiece. The 4-flute straight-flute geometry provides rigidity and clean chip control in a wide range of metalworking applications. With a thread limit of H3 and a Class 2B fit, this tap produces threads to standard tolerance for general mechanical assembly. It is sized for use in manual tapping operations by machinists, maintenance technicians, and toolroom professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole and through-hole threading operations in alloy steel, carbon steel, aluminum, and free-machining stainless steel. The bottoming chamfer allows threads to be cut close to the bottom of a blind hole, making it the preferred choice for close-tolerance applications where full thread depth is required. It is part of the Cleveland Series 1003TN and is intended for hand-tapping setups, though it may also be used in low-speed tapping fixtures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer for threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends service life across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit with Class 2B fit for standard tolerance internal threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute straight-flute design for rigidity and chip control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, UNC thread form\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, and free-machining stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for blind hole and through-hole threading in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, and free-machining stainless steel per the Cleveland Series 1003TN product line specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by machinists and maintenance technicians using a standard tap wrench or T-handle. Always use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce heat and extend tap life. Ensure the tap is started square to the hole to avoid thread misalignment or tap breakage.
