Built from powdered metal and finished with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, this tap delivers the wear resistance and edge retention required when threading aerospace alloys and stainless steel. It cuts an M18 x 2.5 Metric Coarse thread to a 6H class of fit with a D6\/D7 thread limit. The plug chamfer provides a gradual cutting action suited to through-hole work. Four flutes evacuate chips forward ahead of the tap, keeping the thread form clean and reducing the risk of re-cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for through-hole threading operations in materials that demand high tool performance, specifically aerospace alloys and stainless steel. It is suited to CNC machining centers and manual tapping setups where consistent 6H thread tolerances are required. The TiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in production environments where cycle counts are high. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working to aerospace or precision manufacturing specifications will find this tap appropriate for those tolerance classes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM18 x 2.5 Metric Coarse thread form, 6H class of fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowdered metal construction for improved hardness and wear resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute spiral point design pushes chips forward for clean through-hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for gradual thread engagement in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eD6\/D7 thread limit for controlled oversize tolerance range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for threading aerospace alloys and stainless steel.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the spindle is properly aligned before engaging the tap to prevent thread lead errors or tool breakage. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the material being threaded, particularly when working stainless steel or aerospace alloys. Do not reverse the tap under power without confirming the machine is set for proper reversing cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M18 x 2.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.50 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: D6\/D7\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Through-Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aerospace Alloy, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Powdered Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.542 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3906\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 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: GUHRING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9039060180000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GUHRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748252844338,"sku":"9039060180000","price":106.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b48d8138c505c3bb497ba62c720f9010.jpg?v=1788891159","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/guhring-9039060180000-spiral-point-tap-m18-x-2-5","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
