The plug chamfer — typically 3 to 5 threads — makes this tap suited for through-holes and moderately deep blind holes where starting ease and thread continuity both matter. At 0.31 pounds, it is a lightweight single-piece tool handled by machinists, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and maintenance mechanics who need accurate 1\/4-28 UNF threads in the field or on the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used wherever a 1\/4-28 unified fine thread is required — common in HVAC equipment fasteners, instrumentation fittings, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assemblies. The fine thread pitch provides good holding strength in thinner materials and hard alloys. It is suitable for hand tapping in a standard tap wrench on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Import-grade tooling at this size is a standard choice for general maintenance and repair operations where high production volume is not a factor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-28 UNF thread form for fine-pitch internal threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel (HSS) construction provides wear resistance across common metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer style suits both through-holes and moderately deep blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand tap design for use with a standard tap wrench — no machine required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.31 pounds for easy field carry and bench use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard hand plug tap for cutting 1\/4-28 UNF internal threads in ferrous and non-ferrous metal workpieces across general maintenance, repair, and mechanical assembly applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed machinist or qualified maintenance technician should select the correct tap drill size for 1\/4-28 UNF threads before starting. Secure the workpiece firmly and use a calibrated tap wrench to maintain perpendicular alignment with the hole. Apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tap life and reduce the risk of breakage. Back off the tap periodically to clear chips, especially in blind holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-28 UNF\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: 0.31 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-2500-28-P-I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EAGLE CUTTING TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233910194482,"sku":"HT-2500-28-P-I","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307622827.png?v=1780111926","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/eagle-cutting-tool-ht-2500-28-p-i-hand-plug-tap-1-4-28","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
