Built from high carbon steel (HCS), this tap features four flutes and a 3-to-5-thread chamfer point style that guides entry and distributes cutting load across multiple teeth. It is driven by hand wrenching with a standard tap wrench, making it a practical tool for maintenance, repair, and fabrication work in plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and general trade applications. The NS thread form designates a non-standard thread profile, and the 2B tolerance class indicates a standard-fit internal thread suitable for general mechanical assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for threading operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a 1\/4-20 NS thread is required. Typical applications include field repair of threaded fittings, fabrication of brackets or housings, and re-tapping of damaged threads in trade equipment. The hand-drive design makes it appropriate for portable, on-site use without power tooling. It is sold individually and packaged on a card for point-of-use access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-20 NS 2B thread form for non-standard internal thread cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand direction of cut, compatible with standard tap wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-flute design with 4 flutes for balanced chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-to-5-thread chamfer point style for guided thread entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh carbon steel (HCS) construction for hardness and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand-wrench drive — no power tooling required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a hand tap for use wherever a 1\/4-20 NS 2B right-hand internal thread is required; confirm thread form and tolerance class against the mating fastener or fitting specification before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by a mechanic, pipefitter, or trade technician using a standard hand tap wrench. Before tapping, drill the appropriate tap drill size for the 1\/4-20 thread and secure the workpiece. Apply cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend tap life. Do not force the tap — back off a half turn periodically to break chips and prevent binding or breakage.\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 NS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDirection of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 to 5 Thread Chamfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand Wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Carbon Steel (HCS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 042526080357\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: IRWIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: IR8035\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IRWIN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51342802714930,"sku":"IR8035","price":26.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310551823.jpg?v=1782007079","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/irwin-ir8035-pipe-tap-1-4-20-ns-2b-straight-flute-hcs","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
