Built from high speed steel (HSS) with an H7 thread limit, it delivers consistent thread tolerance in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. The bottoming chamfer geometry allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes where minimal runout is required. With a 2-flute configuration, the tap channels chips forward ahead of the cutting edge, reducing clogging in short-chipping materials. Overall length is 2 inches with a thread length of 11\/16 inches. This tap is suited for machinists and maintenance technicians working in manual or CNC tapping operations on small-diameter fastener holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe K008161AS is used in general metalworking, maintenance, and light manufacturing environments where 6-32 UNC threaded holes are required. The bottoming chamfer makes it appropriate for applications where thread engagement must extend to near the base of a blind hole. Right-hand thread direction is standard for conventional 6-32 UNC fastener assemblies. It is suited for use in drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-tapping fixtures where controlled torque and alignment are maintained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-32 UNC thread form for standard inch-series fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer allows threading to near the base of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides wear resistance across common workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH7 thread limit ensures consistent fit within standard tolerance class for 6-32 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral point design pushes chips forward to reduce clogging in through-hole operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction compatible with standard 6-32 UNC fasteners\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 applications requiring 6-32 UNC right-hand internal threads in metalworking and maintenance operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of this tap is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC rigid tapping cycle. The workpiece should be secured and a pilot hole of the correct tap drill diameter should be pre-drilled before tapping. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread quality. Do not reverse the tap under load without backing off chips, and avoid exceeding the recommended torque capacity for the tap size to prevent breakage.\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H7\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: 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\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: K008161AS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51733080015154,"sku":"K008161AS","price":25.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bdf27358396155a2062856a994c14ac6.jpg?v=1788751168","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k008161as-spiral-point-tap-6-32-unc-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
