It features a 1\/4-20 UNC thread form with a plug chamfer, making it suitable for starting threads in through-holes where chips are pushed forward ahead of the tap. Built from HSS-E cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a GUHRING Ignator coating, it delivers improved wear resistance and heat tolerance compared to standard HSS taps. The 3-flute design and H4\/H5 thread limit support accurate thread production in both 2B and 3B class-of-fit applications. Overall length is 2.5 inches with a 0.630-inch thread length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for through-hole threading operations in steel workpieces across general machining, fabrication, and maintenance applications. It fits standard tap holders and machine spindles sized for the 0.255-inch shank diameter. The plug chamfer makes it best suited for through-holes rather than blind holes. Series 4885 identifies this as part of a consistent GUHRING product family for inch-thread spiral point taps used in production and repair environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4-20 UNC thread form with plug chamfer for through-hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHSS-E cobalt construction for improved toughness and heat resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIgnator coating reduces friction and extends tool life in steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH4\/H5 thread limit supports 2B and 3B class-of-fit tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand, 3-flute spiral point design pushes chips forward through the hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement — suitable for conventional flood or dry tapping setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for through-hole threading in steel applications.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the spindle is properly aligned with the hole before tapping. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped. Do not use this plug-chamfer tap in blind holes where chip evacuation is restricted, as chip packing can cause tap breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\/3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H4\/H5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: HSS-E Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ignator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.630 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.255 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.551 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20\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: Steel\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: 4885\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 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: 9048855063500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GUHRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728321052978,"sku":"9048855063500","price":25.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c411a2f6acba706f635bcb93c6273225_f42b38b5-863c-49cf-b727-9a7510421925.jpg?v=1788690447","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/guhring-9048855063500-spiral-point-tap-1-4-20-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
