Built to M6x1 thread size with a 6H class of fit, it cuts right-hand threads with consistent accuracy across a range of workpiece materials. The tap is manufactured from High-Speed Steel-E (HSS-E), which provides improved toughness and heat resistance compared to standard HSS. A dual TiCN and TiN coating reduces friction, extends tool life, and helps resist wear in demanding cutting conditions. With a plug chamfer and 3-flute geometry, this tap is well-suited for production environments where through-hole threading speed and reliability matter. It is part of KENNAMETAL Series T820.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for through-hole threading operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals. It is commonly used in machine shops, manufacturing facilities, and maintenance operations where metric M6 threads are required. The plug chamfer style makes it appropriate for starting threads in through-holes where the tap can pass fully through the material. It is designed for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and tapping machines. Coolant-through is not supported on this tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM6x1 metric thread size with 6H class of fit for standard metric tolerance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHSS-E construction provides enhanced toughness and heat resistance over conventional HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual TiCN and TiN coating reduces friction and extends service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute spiral point geometry pushes chips forward, suited for through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer allows efficient thread starting in through-hole workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, D5 thread limit, Series T820\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for through-hole threading in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals where an M6x1 metric thread with 6H fit tolerance is specified.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the workpiece is securely fixtured before tool changes. Use appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the workpiece material to maximize tool life. Verify correct tap holder alignment and machine feed rate before beginning the threading cycle to avoid tap breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M6x1 Metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: D5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Through-Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel-E (HSS-E)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KSP32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN and TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.63 inches (16.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.255 inches (6.48 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.37 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.80 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: T820\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 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: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5431706\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732431667506,"sku":"5431706","price":73.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/861d04fdd0d65732ca5807df8952d8d4_c53c2c99-f135-4ace-82e3-6bd4b4811e12.jpg?v=1788742706","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-5431706-m6x1-spiral-point-tap-3-flutes-hss-e","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
