Built from high speed steel with a titanium carbonitride (TiCN) coating, it delivers extended tool life and reduced friction compared to uncoated taps. The plug chamfer distributes cutting load across the first several threads, making it well suited for general-purpose threading where the tap can enter from one side without requiring a bottoming finish. Right-hand thread direction and a 2B class of fit make this tap compatible with standard fastener tolerance requirements. The H2 thread limit ensures accurate sizing for most production and maintenance threading tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use on ferrous and hard materials including cast iron, stainless steel, and carbon steel. It handles both blind hole and through-hole threading, making it a versatile choice for machine shops, maintenance facilities, and toolroom applications. The 3-flute straight-flute geometry is appropriate for short-chipping materials where chip evacuation is manageable without helical flute assistance. It is typically driven by hand using a tap wrench or T-handle, though it may also be used in low-speed machine tapping setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN coating for increased surface hardness and improved wear resistance over uncoated HSS taps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer with 3-flute straight-flute geometry suited for both blind and through-hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit and 2B class of fit for standard fastener tolerance compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand 4-40 UNC thread form at 40 threads per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for cast iron, stainless steel, and steel material applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement simplifies hand and light machine tapping setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for threading 4-40 UNC tapped holes in cast iron, stainless steel, and steel workpieces.

Secure the workpiece before tapping and ensure the tap is started square to the hole to prevent thread misalignment or tap breakage. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material, particularly when threading stainless steel or hardened steels. For blind holes, track thread depth carefully to avoid bottoming the tap against the hole floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-40\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: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\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\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.110 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: 1002TICN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 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: CLEVELAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C56052\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722288693554,"sku":"C56052","price":33.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3fca26ddbd1cf8e189972044f53bc747.jpg?v=1788588723","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c56052-hand-tap-4-40-unc-plug-ticn-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
