It cuts a 7\/8-9 UNC right-hand thread to a 2B class of fit and is manufactured from HSS-E cobalt high-speed steel for improved wear resistance and heat tolerance compared to standard HSS. A titanium nitride (TiN) coating further extends tool life and reduces friction during cutting. With four flutes and a plug chamfer, this tap drives chips forward through the hole, making it well-suited for production tapping on through-hole work. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance mechanics are the primary users of this tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is built for through-hole threading in steel at the 7\/8-9 UNC thread size. The plug chamfer provides a gradual thread lead-in, which helps reduce entry force in moderate-to-hard materials. The H6\/H7 thread limit designation supports consistent fit tolerances across production runs. It is commonly used in machine shops, MRO environments, and heavy equipment manufacturing where UNC fastener threads are standard. The 4.689-inch overall length provides clearance for use in standard tap holders and CNC rigid-tap setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7\/8-9 UNC thread form, right-hand cut, 2B class of fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHSS-E cobalt construction for elevated heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends cutting life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer (4-5 thread lead-in) for through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 flutes with spiral point geometry to push chips forward through the hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH6\/H7 thread limit for consistent tolerance control in production use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for through-hole threading in steel.

Always ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the spindle speed is set per the tap manufacturer guidelines for the material being threaded. Use appropriate cutting fluid for steel to reduce heat buildup and improve thread quality. Inspect the tap for chipping or wear before each use and do not force a worn tap, as breakage in the bore can result in costly extraction work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8-9 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H6\/H7\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\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Through-Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: HSS-E Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.689 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.378 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.697 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1111 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3916\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.19 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 9039160222250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GUHRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51753107194162,"sku":"9039160222250","price":139.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e8767999dd1549bc6450fdc8be91dbc0_e82ced37-6523-414b-a8b6-0a0ff1282d03.jpg?v=1788932857","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/guhring-9039160222250-spiral-point-tap-7-8-9-unc-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
