Built to a 1-5\/8 inch diameter with an 8 threads-per-inch (TPI) thread pitch, this import-grade tap is suited for threading large-diameter holes by hand or with a tap wrench. The plug chamfer style — typically 3 to 5 threads of lead-in — makes it well-suited for through-holes and blind holes where a starting chamfer aids alignment and controlled cutting force. HSS construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for threading steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in heavy industrial, maintenance, and fabrication environments where large-diameter threading is required. Typical applications include threading bolt holes in structural components, heavy machinery frames, flanges, and similar assemblies. The 1-5\/8 inch-8 thread form is consistent with coarse-thread patterns used across industrial and mechanical fastener standards. This tap is installed by hand using a standard tap wrench sized for large-diameter taps, making it appropriate for job-site repair, machine shop work, and maintenance operations where powered tapping equipment is not available or practical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-5\/8 inch diameter, 8 TPI thread specification for large-diameter internal threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer geometry provides controlled lead-in for through-holes and accessible blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel (HSS) construction delivers hardness and wear resistance across common metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand-tap design compatible with standard large-size tap wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImport-grade option provides a cost-effective solution for general-purpose threading tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose hand plug tap for use in standard large-diameter threading operations consistent with 1-5\/8 inch-8 TPI thread form requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by a machinist or qualified tradesperson using a properly sized hand tap wrench. Always secure the workpiece and ensure the tap is started square to the hole to prevent tap breakage or cross-threading. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to reduce heat and extend tap life. Back off the tap periodically to break chips, especially in deep or blind holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.2 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: EAGLE CUTTING TOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: HT-16250-8-P-I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EAGLE CUTTING TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233410154802,"sku":"HT-16250-8-P-I","price":146.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307622692.png?v=1780099377","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/eagle-cutting-tool-ht-16250-8-p-i-hss-hand-plug-tap-1-5-8-8-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
