Plug taps are chamfered on the first 3 to 5 threads, making them a general-purpose choice for starting threads in a pre-drilled hole or continuing after a taper tap. At 0.31 pounds, this is a lightweight, handheld tool suited for bench work, field repair, and production threading tasks. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals reach for this style of tap when cutting machine-screw-size threads by hand or in a tapping fixture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HT-836-P-I is appropriate for threading operations requiring an 8-36 UNC thread form. The 8-36 designation indicates a number-8 screw size with 36 threads per inch, a fine-pitch thread commonly used in instrument work, electronics enclosures, and light mechanical assemblies. It is used in shop and field settings wherever a clean, accurate internal thread is needed in metal or thermoplastic workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHSS construction provides hardness and wear resistance suitable for threading steel, aluminum, brass, and similar materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer (3 to 5 threads) makes this tap versatile for both starting and finishing threads in through-holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-36 UNC thread form covers fine-pitch machine-screw applications common in instrument and light mechanical work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.31 pounds, easy to handle in a tap wrench or tapping fixture\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImport grade offers a cost-effective option for general-purpose threading tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 8-36 UNC plug tap for use with compatible tap wrenches and tapping fixtures sized for number-8 machine-screw taps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed machinist or qualified maintenance technician should select the correct drill size for an 8-36 UNC thread before tapping. Secure the workpiece firmly before applying the tap, and use a cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tap life and produce a cleaner thread. Apply steady, even pressure and back the tap off periodically to break chips and prevent binding. Replace any tap that shows signs of chipping, excessive wear, or discoloration from heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-36 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand Plug Tap\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\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-836-P-I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EAGLE CUTTING TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51234030453042,"sku":"HT-836-P-I","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307623130.png?v=1780115614","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/eagle-cutting-tool-ht-836-p-i-hss-hand-plug-tap-8-36","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
