Eagle Cutting Tool HT-836-T-D Hss Taper Tap 8-36

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL HT-836-T-D is a high-speed steel (HSS) taper tap ground to cut 8-36 UNF threads. Taper taps feature a gradual chamfer across the first 8 to 10 threads, distributing cutting load progressively and making thread entry easier in through-holes or when starting a new thread in a blind hole. This tap is manufactured in the USA and suits trade professionals threading fastener holes in metal fixtures, brackets, and components across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general mechanical applications.

The HT-836-T-D is suited for threading 8-36 UNF holes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The taper geometry makes it the preferred starting tap when threading by hand or with a tap wrench, especially in applications where thread alignment and progressive load are priorities. Machinists, pipefitters, and field service technicians reach for taper taps when cutting new threads in drilled holes.

Key Features

• 8-36 UNF thread specification for fine-pitch threading applications
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Taper chamfer on first 8 to 10 threads for progressive cutting and easy thread starting
• USA manufactured
• Low minimum order quantity of 1 unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard hand tap for use in any application requiring 8-36 UNF tapped holes.

Installation Notes

This tap is installed by a machinist or qualified technician using a tap wrench or machine tap holder. Always use cutting fluid to reduce friction and extend tool life when tapping metal. Back the tap off periodically to break chips and prevent binding. Ensure the drilled pilot hole matches the correct tap drill size for 8-36 UNF threads before beginning.
