Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, this tap uses a three-flute spiral point geometry that pushes chips ahead of the cut rather than packing them into the flute. This keeps the cutting zone clear and reduces the risk of chip-related breakage during production tapping. The plug chamfer provides a gradual thread lead-in, making it suitable for most standard through-hole work. Thread limit is H5, and the class of fit is 2B, conforming to standard UNC tolerances for general-purpose fastener applications. This tap is right-hand cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe K008335AS is suited for machine tapping in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and tapping machines where through-hole threading is required. The spiral point design is most effective in through-holes where chips can exit from the bottom of the bore. Typical materials include mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable metals. It is not designed for coolant-through delivery. This tap is packaged and sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-20 UNC thread form, right-hand cut, 2B class of fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree-flute spiral point geometry pushes chips forward for clean through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability across a wide range of machinable materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for standard lead-in in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH5 thread limit for consistent 2B tolerance compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish — no coating variables to account for in speed and feed calculations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use spiral point tap for standard 1\/4-20 UNC through-hole threading operations on compatible machine tapping equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpiral point taps are installed by machinists and tooling technicians in machine tapping applications. Always ensure the spindle is properly aligned and that the tap holder provides adequate float to prevent thread distortion. Use appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the workpiece material to extend tool life. Never reverse a broken tap manually — consult standard tap extraction procedures to avoid workpiece damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20\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 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\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H5\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: 0.04 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: K008335AS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727197929778,"sku":"K008335AS","price":22.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ac926cb5fae0a04fd5dc6d84b41afead.jpg?v=1788674608","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k008335as-spiral-point-tap-1-4-20-unc-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
