Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, this tap delivers extended tool life and reduced friction during cutting. The plug chamfer — typically 3 to 5 threads — makes it suitable for through-hole tapping where the tap can push chips ahead of the cutting edge rather than backing them out. With 2 flutes and a right-hand thread direction, this tap is a standard workhorse for machine shops, maintenance technicians, and field service professionals working with small-diameter fastener threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for tapping 6-32 UNC threads in a range of materials commonly encountered in light manufacturing, mechanical assembly, and equipment repair. The TiN coating improves performance in ferrous and non-ferrous metals alike, including steel, aluminum, and brass. With an overall length of 2 inches and a thread length of 11\/16 inches, it fits standard tap holders and chucks used in both CNC and manual tapping operations. The H1 thread limit keeps finished threads within close tolerance for reliable fastener fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-32 UNC thread form with right-hand cut for standard fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer pushes chips forward, optimized for through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction withstands heat generated during machine tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life compared to uncoated HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH1 thread limit ensures tight tolerance control on finished threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute design balances chip clearance and cutting edge strength at this thread size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use tap for standard 6-32 UNC through-hole tapping applications.

Always secure the workpiece and ensure proper alignment before tapping to prevent tap breakage at this small diameter. Use an appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound to reduce heat and extend tool life. Follow shop safety practices and machine guarding requirements when power tapping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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\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\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6875 inches (11\/16)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 inches\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\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: K008155AS25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730043175218,"sku":"K008155AS25","price":31.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0f655549397f487119a405ab8688fe90.jpg?v=1788710683","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k008155as25-spiral-point-tap-6-32-unc-tin-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
