Built from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this plug chamfer tap drives chips forward ahead of the cutting edge, keeping the flutes clear during machine tapping operations. It cuts 8-36 UNF threads with a right-hand helix and carries a H3 thread limit for consistent tolerance control. With 2 flutes and a 0.75-inch thread length, this tap suits production and maintenance threading tasks where chip evacuation and thread accuracy are the primary requirements. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die workers are the typical users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for threading through-holes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals in both production shop and maintenance repair environments. The 8-36 UNF thread form is common in precision assemblies, instrumentation, and fine-threaded fastener applications where a finer pitch is required than the UNC equivalent. The plug chamfer allows the tap to start easily in a pre-drilled hole while maintaining cutting efficiency over the full thread length. Coolant-through capability is not available on this model, making it appropriate for hand or machine tapping with applied cutting fluid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry pushes chips forward, reducing clogging in through-hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for easy hole entry and consistent thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit ensures repeatable tolerance control in precision threading applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction compatible with standard tapping equipment and toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting oils and water-soluble fluids\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 8-36 UNF through-hole threading operations in standard tapping chucks, CNC rigid tapping holders, and hand tap wrenches accepting this shank size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed and used by machinists and maintenance technicians using standard tapping equipment. Always pre-drill with the correct tap drill size for 8-36 UNF before threading. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use and replace if cutting edges show damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-36\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\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 Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\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: 0.12 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: K011216AS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754634248498,"sku":"K011216AS","price":25.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5e8952b92090e37a7de474d4eee598ac.jpg?v=1788947286","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k011216as-spiral-point-tap-8-36-unf-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
