Built from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, this tap delivers improved wear resistance and longer tool life compared to standard HSS taps. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading closer to the bottom of a hole or into shallow-entry fittings. With 5 flutes and a 1.06-inch thread length, it is suited for production and maintenance tapping applications where consistent thread form and dimensional accuracy are required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and machinists are the primary installers of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for cutting NPT tapered pipe threads in materials compatible with cobalt tooling, including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and other ferrous metals. The KEG series designation indicates EMUGE standard geometry for pipe thread tapping. Typical applications include threading pipe fittings, manifolds, valves, and hydraulic or pneumatic ports in both shop and field environments. The 0.5625-inch shank diameter fits standard tap holders and chucks sized for that shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 NPT tapered pipe thread form for standard pressure-rated pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer for threading in restricted-depth or close-tolerance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt HSS construction for improved heat and wear resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-flute geometry provides chip load distribution and stable cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEMUGE KEG series  -  consistent dimensional tolerancing for reliable thread fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard production tap for applications requiring 1\/4-18 NPT internal pipe threads, compatible with tap holders and chucks accepting a 0.5625-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool is installed and used by machinists, pipefitters, and licensed plumbers operating manual or CNC tapping equipment. Always use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce heat buildup and protect the TiN coating. Ensure the tap is properly aligned to the pre-drilled pilot hole before engaging to avoid tap breakage or thread damage. Follow applicable IFGC or shop safety standards when threading fittings that will carry gas or pressurized fluid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Modified Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.06 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.4375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4210 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: KEG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 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: EMUGE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: AW181400.5765\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EMUGE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51980265357618,"sku":"AW181400.5765","price":98.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e98914294d5f5524120548d271ba86b5.jpg?v=1789981420","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/emuge-aw181400-5765-pipe-tap-1-4-18-npt-cobalt-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
