Plug taps feature a chamfer on the first 3 to 5 threads, making them suited for threading through holes and most standard tapping operations where the tap can be started and advanced through material. This tap is manufactured as an import-grade tool, offering a practical option for general threading tasks in a shop or field setting. At 4.2 pounds, it is a substantial tap intended for use with a tap wrench or appropriate tapping equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in metalworking, maintenance, and repair applications where large-diameter internal threads are required. The 1-3\/4 inch-8 thread form is a coarse-pitch, large-diameter designation commonly found in heavy industrial machinery, structural fasteners, and large pipe or pressure fittings. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians typically reach for this size when reworking or creating new threads in heavy plate, castings, or large-diameter workpieces. It is suitable for hand tapping in a range of metals depending on cutting conditions and lubrication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer style — 3 to 5 thread lead — suitable for through holes and general-purpose hand tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-3\/4 inch diameter, 8 TPI coarse-pitch thread form for heavy industrial applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImport-grade tool providing a cost-effective option for standard threading jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4.2 pound weight indicates substantial body size appropriate for this large-diameter tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 1-3\/4 inch-8 threaded applications; compatible with tap wrenches and tapping fixtures sized for large-diameter hand taps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by hand using a properly sized tap wrench — power tapping equipment is not recommended without appropriate speed and torque controls for a tap of this diameter. Secure the workpiece firmly before starting and apply a suitable cutting fluid to reduce friction and heat buildup. Advance the tap in short increments, backing off periodically to break chips and clear the flutes. Always inspect the tap and pilot hole for alignment before applying force to prevent 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: 1-3\/4 inch\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\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Import\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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-17500-8-P-I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EAGLE CUTTING TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233994768690,"sku":"HT-17500-8-P-I","price":173.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307622686.png?v=1780114368","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/eagle-cutting-tool-ht-17500-8-p-i-hss-hand-plug-tap-1-3-4in-8tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
