Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap delivers reliable thread-cutting performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It features 2 straight flutes and a plug chamfer with a 2B class of fit and an H2 thread limit, making it well suited for producing threads within standard tolerance ranges. Overall length is 1.6875 inches with a thread length of 0.375 inches. Licensed machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary users for this style of tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in manual hand-tapping operations and machine tapping setups where straight-flute geometry is preferred, typically in through-holes or shallow blind holes in softer materials. Its 1-64 UNC thread size makes it appropriate for precision instrument work, small fastener threads, and light mechanical assemblies. The right-hand thread direction follows standard convention for the vast majority of threading operations in these industries. Coolant-through capability is not included, making it best suited for conventional tapping with applied cutting fluid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-64 UNC thread size with right-hand thread direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 straight flutes with plug chamfer for general-purpose through-hole and shallow blind-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2B class of fit with H2 thread limit for standard tolerance threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability in ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for use with standard cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact overall length of 1.6875 inches for use in tight workspaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard toolroom tap for applications requiring 1-64 UNC right-hand threads in manual or machine tapping operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap should be installed in a tap wrench or appropriate machine tap holder before use. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the pilot hole is drilled to the correct tap drill size for 1-64 UNC threads before beginning. Apply a suitable cutting fluid to extend tool life and improve thread finish. Follow OSHA and shop safety guidelines when operating any rotating cutting tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-64 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: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.6875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1410 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1100 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 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: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: K008015AS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51733456388402,"sku":"K008015AS","price":27.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fd4ecc05bbb35986f4fa2bcb4404685a.jpg?v=1788755614","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k008015as-straight-flute-tap-1-64-unc-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
