The interrupted thread geometry reduces cutting friction and chip packing, making it well suited for tapping blind or deep holes in tough ferrous materials. This tap features a plug chamfer with 4 flutes and a regular hook angle, providing controlled chip flow during the threading operation. Overall length is 2.125 inches, with a 0.4375-inch shank diameter and a 0.75-inch thread length. It carries a bright finish, indicating no supplemental coating. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians working in fabrication, repair, or retrofit applications will find this tap appropriate for hand or machine tapping setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use in alloy steel, tool steel, and carbon steel workpieces requiring a sealed tapered pipe thread connection. The NPTF thread standard ensures a pressure-tight mechanical seal without sealant when paired with a properly tapped hole, making it common in hydraulic fittings, pneumatic manifolds, and fluid system assemblies. The plug chamfer style makes it appropriate for through-hole applications or for starting a thread where full-thread engagement is not required from the top of the hole. It is suited for both manual tapping and use in tapping machines or CNC machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8-27 NPTF tapered pipe thread form for pressure-tight connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInterrupted thread design reduces friction and chip packing in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute configuration with regular hook angle for controlled chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer allows easy thread starting in through holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides durability in alloy steel and carbon steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright finish, uncoated — suitable for use with cutting fluid in standard tapping operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for tapping 1\/8-27 NPTF threads in alloy tool steel and carbon steel workpieces.

Always use a compatible cutting fluid to extend tool life and improve thread finish when tapping steel. Secure the workpiece firmly before starting the tap to prevent misalignment. Inspect the tap for chipping or wear before each use and replace if cutting edges are damaged to avoid thread quality issues or tap breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8-27\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHook\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.328 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.312 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Tool Steel, Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\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: C64108\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700379910450,"sku":"C64108","price":118.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4a83f37c02fa44e7603506a708f2fa38.jpg?v=1788389625","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c64108-1-8-27-nptf-interrupted-thread-pipe-tap-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
