Built from high speed steel (HSS) with an oxide finish for improved lubricity and corrosion resistance, this tap features a plug chamfer, 4 flutes, and a right-hand thread direction. It holds a Class of Fit 2B with a Thread Limit of H3, making it suitable for standard tolerance internal thread applications. Overall length is 2.938 inches with a thread length of 0.750 inches. This tap is used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople working on production or repair threading tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C56014 is rated for both blind hole and through-hole threading applications. It is well suited for use in cast iron, stainless steel, and steel workpieces. The UNC 3\/8-16 thread form is one of the most common fastener standards in North American mechanical and structural applications, making this tap a frequent choice in manufacturing, maintenance, and repair environments. Shank diameter is 0.381 inches and the square drive measures 0.286 inches across, compatible with standard tap wrenches and tapping heads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across ferrous materials including cast iron, stainless steel, and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating reduces friction and improves chip flow during tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer (3-5 thread lead) for starting in through-holes or holes with sufficient depth clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute straight flute design provides stability and good thread form in short-chipping materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 2B fit with H3 thread limit for standard tolerance internal threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for both blind hole and through-hole threading operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting 3\/8-16 UNC internal threads in cast iron, stainless steel, and steel.

Always ensure the workpiece is securely clamped and the tap is started square to the hole to avoid thread damage or tap breakage. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped, particularly with stainless steel. For blind holes, confirm adequate hole depth before tapping to prevent bottoming the tap under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16\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: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\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: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.938 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.750 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.381 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.286 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches\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: Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, 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: 1002BO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: C56014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51707899969842,"sku":"C56014","price":28.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/26cd2ad9a0c2c323079d033608b563cf.jpg?v=1788442782","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c56014-hand-tap-3-8-16-plug-rh-hss-4-flute-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
