Emuge BU501010.5005 Spiral Flute Tap 6-32 Unc Cobalt

Product Description

The EMUGE BU501010.5005 is a spiral flute tap designed for cutting 6-32 UNC internal threads in production and maintenance environments. Built from cobalt high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap delivers reliable performance in a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes. With a 35-degree helix angle and medium flute style, it efficiently evacuates chips upward out of the hole. At 2.205 inches overall length, it fits standard tapping chucks and handles used across machining and repair operations. Installation is performed by machinists and tool-and-die professionals.

This tap is suited for threading blind and through holes in light-to-medium production runs where a 6-32 UNC, Class 3B fit is required. The Enorm series designation indicates a general-purpose industrial standard. Its cobalt construction makes it appropriate for harder steels and stainless alloys where standard HSS taps wear prematurely. The right-hand thread direction and right-hand flute orientation are standard for conventional tapping operations on vertical mills, drill presses, and CNC tapping centers.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread size with Class 3B fit for tight tolerance internal threads
• Modified bottoming chamfer for threading close to the base of blind holes
• Cobalt construction for improved wear resistance in harder materials
• 35-degree helix angle promotes upward chip evacuation in blind holes
• Bright, uncoated finish compatible with most cutting fluids and tapping compounds
• No coolant-through requirement simplifies setup on standard equipment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct tooling selection for applications requiring a 6-32 UNC spiral flute tap with a modified bottoming chamfer and 3B class of fit.

Installation Notes

This tap is installed by machinists using standard tapping chucks, T-handle tap wrenches, or CNC tapping holders. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the spindle is aligned axially with the hole before tapping. Apply appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the workpiece material. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping between uses to avoid thread damage or tap breakage.
