It produces 5\/8-11 UNC right-hand threads using a taper chamfer that eases thread engagement at the start of the cut. Constructed from high-speed steel (HSS) with a gold oxide coating, this tap resists wear and mild corrosion during use. The 4-flute configuration provides stable cutting action and chip clearance in through-hole and blind-hole applications. It carries a thread limit designation of H3, indicating a tight tolerance class suited to standard UNC threading work. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die workers are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in machine shops, maintenance and repair operations, and general manufacturing environments. The taper chamfer style makes it well suited as a starting tap, gradually entering the hole before full thread engagement is achieved. It is appropriate for ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and similar materials where 5\/8-11 UNC threads are required. The right-hand thread direction is standard for the vast majority of threading applications in these trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 UNC thread form with right-hand thread direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper chamfer for easy thread starting and progressive engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute design provides stable cutting and reliable chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGold oxide coating adds surface hardness and mild corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit for consistent tolerance control on standard UNC fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use straight flute tap for standard 5\/8-11 UNC threading operations in machine tool, maintenance, and general fabrication applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by machinists and maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC rigid tapping setup. Always ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is properly aligned with the drilled pilot hole before beginning the threading operation. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread quality. Power down or disengage any machine spindle before manually handling or changing the tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8-11\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11\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\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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: Gold Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\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: IMPORT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BDNA-20728\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORT-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722305896754,"sku":"BDNA-20728","price":28.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e4535c9219f75aa4309bb931f9972db1.jpg?v=1788589015","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/import-bdna-20728-straight-flute-tap-5-8-11-unc-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
