Built from powdered metal with a TiCN coating, this tap delivers hardness and wear resistance suited for high-volume or production environments. It features 4 flutes and a 3B class of fit, producing threads to tight tolerances required in precision assemblies. The H3 thread limit keeps dimensional control consistent across production runs. With a thread length of 1-1\/8 inches and an overall length of 2-23\/32 inches, it fits standard tap holders and machine spindles used by machinists and maintenance professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is sized and configured for machine tapping operations in both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Its bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes, which is a common requirement in close-tolerance machining work. The TiCN coating reduces friction and extends tool life when tapping aluminum and cast iron, the primary listed material applications. It is appropriate for CNC machining centers, drill presses configured for tapping, and manual tapping machines where right-hand thread cutting is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer for threading to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN coating improves wear resistance and reduces friction during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowdered metal construction provides consistent hardness throughout the tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 flutes with H3 thread limit for tight dimensional control on 3B class fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, no coolant-through requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for aluminum and cast iron material applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for machine tapping of 5\/16-18 UNC right-hand threads in aluminum and cast iron workpieces.

Secure the tap in a properly sized tap holder or collet before operation and confirm spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material. Always ensure the workpiece is clamped securely and the hole is drilled to the correct tap drill diameter for a 5\/16-18 UNC thread before tapping. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use to avoid thread damage or tool breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18 UNC\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: 18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/8 inches (0.665 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-23\/32 inches (3.543 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.318 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.238 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.377 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Powdered Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Cast Iron\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: 10052\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 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: OSG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1005200408\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727915516210,"sku":"1005200408","price":62.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/06a9fe24a50c2832ecdfdd5c010a3a85.jpg?v=1788684456","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1005200408-straight-flute-tap-5-16-18-unc-bottoming","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
