Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers reliable thread form in production and maintenance applications. The plug chamfer  -  typically 3 to 5 threads  -  provides a gradual cutting action that suits through-holes and moderately deep blind holes. With 4 flutes and an H2 thread limit, this tap holds tight tolerances for Class 2B and 3B fits. Overall length is 2-1\/8 inches, with a 3\/4-inch thread length and a shank diameter of 0.168 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for machine-shop, maintenance, repair, and light manufacturing environments where 8-36 UNF threads are required. Material applications include aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel. It is appropriate for use in drill presses, CNC machining centers, tapping arms, and hand-tapping setups where controlled feed and alignment can be maintained. The straight flute design works best in through-hole and short blind-hole applications where chip evacuation is not a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-36 UNF thread form, right-hand direction, Class 2B and 3B fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across steel and aluminum workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish  -  ready to use as-supplied or compatible with aftermarket coatings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer (3-5 thread lead) for gradual cutting action in through-holes and shallow blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit for consistent tolerance control on precision thread fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute design provides good thread form stability in short-chipping materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 8-36 UNF straight flute plug tap.

Before tapping, ensure the pilot hole is drilled to the correct tap drill diameter for 8-36 UNF to achieve the required thread engagement percentage. Secure workpieces firmly and maintain axial alignment to prevent tap breakage. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material; dry tapping is not recommended for steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-36 UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36\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: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B and 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/8 inches (2.126 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (0.469 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.168 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.131 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.934 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating and Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright and Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Cast Aluminum, Cast Iron, High-Carbon Steel, Low-Carbon Steel, Medium-Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 102\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.015 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: 1014600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740538044722,"sku":"1014600","price":18.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/326d7ab8b02d8071a42bd324ef4f1ff7_7c29e2d6-7679-434f-be11-e44b5614a47c.jpg?v=1788825787","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1014600-straight-flute-tap-8-36-unf-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
