Built from cobalt high-speed steel with a nitride coating, this tap delivers improved wear resistance and thermal stability compared to standard HSS taps. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes, making it well-suited for tight-tolerance production applications. With a class of fit of 2BX and a right-hand thread direction, it produces threads compatible with standard 8-32 UNC fasteners. It is intended for use in machine tapping operations on CNC machining centers, drill presses, and tapping machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BU100501.5006 belongs to the EMUGE Rekord A-H series, a line engineered for demanding production environments. It is appropriate for both job shop and high-volume manufacturing work where consistent thread quality across a variety of cast and wrought materials is required. The 0.512-inch thread length suits typical blind and through-hole applications at this thread size, and the 2.480-inch overall length is compatible with standard tap holders and quick-change tapping chucks used in vertical and horizontal machining setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt HSS construction with nitride coating for extended tool life in abrasive and hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer for threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute straight-flute geometry suited for short-chipping materials and through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass of fit 2BX for oversize tolerance, compensating for coating buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, 8-32 UNC thread form\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the EMUGE Rekord A-H series, designed for consistent performance in production tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for use in austenitic iron, bronze, ferritic iron, gunmetal, high speed steel, low alloyed casting steel, Meehanite iron, perlitic iron, spheroidal graphite iron, and tool steel.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is properly aligned with the pre-drilled hole before starting the tapping cycle. Use an appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the workpiece material to reduce friction and extend tap life. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping regularly, as cobalt taps in hard materials can fail without visible warning if feeds and speeds are not properly set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Machine Tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Modified Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2BX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Flute\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.480 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.512 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.168 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.131 inches\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: Nitride\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOversize\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rekord A-H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.013 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: BU100501.5006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EMUGE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972752310578,"sku":"BU100501.5006","price":55.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7b9e8ec2213628ac010488bd8937edc7.jpg?v=1789970423","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/emuge-bu100501-5006-8-32-unc-machine-tap-cobalt-nitride","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
