Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap cold-forms internal threads without cutting, displacing material rather than removing chips. It carries a D6 thread limit and is sized for M4x0.7 threads. Overall length is 2.125 inches, with a thread length of 0.75 inches and a shank diameter of 0.168 inches. Right-hand thread direction. Machinists and tool and die technicians use this tap in production and maintenance environments where clean, strong threads are required in ductile materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for through-hole threading in metals and other ductile workpiece materials where thread forming is preferred over thread cutting. The plug chamfer, with 3 to 5 chamfered threads, allows the tap to be used in through holes with enough lead-in length to engage properly. It is appropriate for general machining, maintenance, and repair operations requiring M4x0.7 metric threads in light-duty to medium-duty applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread forming design displaces material rather than cutting chips, producing stronger threads in ductile materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM4x0.7 metric thread size with right-hand thread direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer with 3 to 5 chamfered threads for through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD6 thread limit for consistent tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across a range of ductile workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for use with appropriate tapping lubricants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use thread forming tap for through-hole applications requiring M4x0.7 metric internal threads in ductile materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC machine tool. Ensure the workpiece is properly fixtured and the pilot hole is drilled to the correct diameter for thread forming, as forming taps require a larger pilot hole than cutting taps. Apply an appropriate tapping fluid or cutting oil before use. Do not use this tap in blind holes without confirming adequate depth clearance for the plug chamfer lead-in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M4x0.7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfered Threads\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-5P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: D6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.168 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.131 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\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Through-Hole Threading\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: 0.05 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: K010452AS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740072214834,"sku":"K010452AS","price":32.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ac3e21e845d51b6ab2b0573a249d29ee.jpg?v=1788822084","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k010452as-thread-forming-tap-m4x0-7-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
