Built from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a MolyGlide coating, this tap handles the heat and friction demands of production threading and repair work. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading closer to the bottom of a blind hole than a standard plug tap. With a 40-degree right-hand helix and a fast flute style, chips are efficiently evacuated up and out of the hole during tapping operations. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians working on precision fastener applications will find this tap suited to both manual and machine tapping setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for 5\/8-18 UNF thread applications requiring a 2B class of fit, which is the standard tolerance for general-purpose inch fastener assemblies. It is appropriate for use in steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, and other materials where cobalt tooling is specified over standard M2 HSS. The modified bottoming chamfer makes it a practical choice when thread depth in a blind hole is critical and a bottoming tap is needed without the fragility of a full bottoming grind. Suitable for job shop, maintenance, and production environments where fine-pitch UNF threading in harder materials is routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-18 UNF thread form with 2B class of fit for general-purpose fine-pitch fastener assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction for improved heat resistance and longer tool life in hard or abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMolyGlide coating reduces friction and galling, improving chip flow and tap life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree right-hand helix with fast flute style for efficient chip evacuation in through and blind hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH4\/H5 thread limit for controlled tolerance on the finished thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threading tool for 5\/8-18 UNF tapped holes requiring a 2B fit; compatible with standard 5\/8 tap holders and collet chucks sized for the shank of a Series 3965 tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThreading operations should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with tap geometry and cutting speeds for cobalt tooling. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is properly aligned to the pre-drilled hole before engaging. Use a cutting fluid or tapping compound appropriate for the workpiece material to complement the MolyGlide coating and extend tool life. Inspect the pre-drilled hole diameter against the recommended tap drill size for 5\/8-18 UNF before tapping to avoid overloading the tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8-18 UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\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: Fast\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Modified Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H4\/H5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.811 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.109 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: MolyGlide\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: 3965\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: 9039650158750\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GUHRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51738468712754,"sku":"9039650158750","price":100.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/680c18eb2b2f773d62b6250bb97a2a6e_1131756c-3e04-4349-ba27-88c37df83cd6.jpg?v=1788799923","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/guhring-9039650158750-spiral-flute-tap-5-8-18-unf-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
