Built from high speed steel with an oxide finish, this tap features a 1\/4-20 UNC thread form, 3 right-hand flutes with a fast flute style, and a 52-degree helix angle. The steep helix angle lifts chips up and out of the hole during cutting, making it well suited for through-chip evacuation in blind hole work. With an H3 thread limit and 2B class of fit, the C58440 holds the dimensional tolerances required for standard UNC fastener threads. Licensed machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance professionals working in production or repair environments are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is rated for use in aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and steel. The plug chamfer provides a gradual lead-in that distributes cutting forces across the first several threads, reducing tap breakage in moderate to harder materials. At 2.5 inches overall length and a 0.63-inch thread length, it fits standard tap holders and is packaged as a single unit. The 1093BO series from CLEVELAND is a general-purpose spiral flute line recognized in industrial tooling catalogs for consistent dimensional accuracy across production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral flute design with 52-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation in blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for gradual thread engagement and reduced tap breakage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit with 2B class of fit for standard UNC fastener thread tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide finish provides light surface protection and reduces friction during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand flute and right-hand thread orientation for conventional machine tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard tap holders accepting a 0.255-inch shank diameter.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the pilot hole diameter matches the recommended tap drill size for 1\/4-20 UNC threads before tapping. Use cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Never reverse a spiral flute tap under power without confirming the machine and holder support reverse-feed operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fast Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 52 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\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: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.63 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.255 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.39 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.191 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blind Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Non-Ferrous Metal, 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: 1093BO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: C58440\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694336016690,"sku":"C58440","price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8cb61a5c2942927cb32cf7249e2a6f1a_fba5aefb-477d-4426-b41e-284a9569e529.jpg?v=1788323292","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c58440-spiral-flute-tap-1-4-20-unc-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
