Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, it delivers extended tool life and reduced friction at the cutting edge. The plug chamfer style — with a gradual lead-in — makes it well suited for through-hole threading where alignment and chip flow are priorities. With 3 flutes, an overall length of 2 inches, and a thread length of 11\/16 inches, this tap is a standard-size tool appropriate for machine shops, maintenance operations, and production environments. It is installed by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used for cutting right-hand 6-32 UNC threads in metalworking applications including fixture fabrication, electronic enclosure assembly, and general machine maintenance. The 2B class of fit produces a standard commercial thread tolerance suitable for the vast majority of 6-32 fastener assemblies. The H3 thread limit designation indicates the ground-thread tolerance offset, which is appropriate for TiN-coated taps where the coating adds a marginal amount of material to the tap geometry. Coolant-through is not supported on this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides toughness and heat resistance for steel and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTitanium nitride (TiN) coating reduces friction and improves wear resistance for longer tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer geometry eases entry into through-holes and supports controlled chip formation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute straight flute design suited for shorter-chip materials and standard through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit ground to accommodate TiN coating and maintain proper 2B class of fit tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction — compatible with standard tapping heads and hand tap wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard production tap for any application requiring 6-32 UNC right-hand internal threads with a 2B class of fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by machinists and maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC tapping cycle. Before tapping, confirm the pilot hole is drilled to the correct size for 6-32 UNC threads and that the workpiece is securely fixtured. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to reduce heat buildup and extend tool life. Do not force or back-drive the tap beyond its design capacity, as straight flute taps can be susceptible to breakage under side loading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\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: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\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: 0.6875 inches (11\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\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: 0.06 pounds\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: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: K008151AS25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51733169602866,"sku":"K008151AS25","price":20.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ab96dc49309e35dfe0c0dfe01f016a22.jpg?v=1788752182","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k008151as25-straight-flute-tap-6-32-unc-hss-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
