It cuts tapered National Pipe Thread (NPT) form threads into ferrous and non-ferrous materials, producing leak-resistant threaded fittings connections in pipe and pipe fitting applications. At 3.5 pounds, this is a solid, full-size tap suited for shop and field use. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians reach for this tap when threading pipe ends or creating new threaded ports in manifolds, flanges, and fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC piping systems, and gas line work where NPT-standard threaded connections are required. The 3\/8-inch NPT size is one of the most common thread sizes encountered in trade work, appearing in water supply lines, refrigerant line access ports, gas valves, and pressure gauge fittings. It is appropriate for use in both production threading operations and single-point repair work in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch NPT taper thread form for leak-resistant pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard NPT taper angle for compatibility with NPT-standard fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull-size tap suitable for both bench vise and power tapping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImport-grade tool offering a cost-effective option for general trade use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for threading 3\/8-inch NPT connections in standard pipe and pipe fittings across plumbing, HVAC, and gas piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePipe taps are installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians following applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) and International Plumbing Code (IPC). Always secure the workpiece firmly before threading and apply cutting oil to the tap to reduce heat and extend tool life. Back the tap out periodically to clear chips and prevent binding. Shut off and depressurize any active piping system before cutting new threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch NPT\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: 3.5 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: PT-30000-8-I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EAGLE CUTTING TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233519108402,"sku":"PT-30000-8-I","price":619.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307623560.png?v=1780102054","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/eagle-cutting-tool-pt-30000-8-i-3-8-hss-npt-pipe-tap","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
