It features a taper chamfer for gradual thread engagement, making it well suited for through-hole applications where the tap can advance progressively into the workpiece. Built from high-speed steel, the 1023602 delivers reliable tool life across production and maintenance tapping operations. It carries a 2B class of fit and an H3 thread limit, producing threads that meet standard tolerance requirements for general-purpose fastener assemblies. The three-flute geometry provides chip clearance while maintaining cutting stability in the materials this tap is rated for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OSG 1023602 is intended for tapping aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel. It is a practical choice for machine shops, maintenance and repair operations, and production environments where 6-32 UNC threaded holes are required. The taper chamfer entry makes it particularly effective in through-hole situations where thread starting ease is a priority. It is used in both manual tapping handles and machine tapping setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-32 UNC thread form with right-hand thread direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper chamfer for gradual thread entry in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit and 2B class of fit for standard general-purpose thread tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute straight design provides chip clearance during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement simplifies setup in standard tapping environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for use in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured before tapping. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped to extend tool life and reduce the risk of tap breakage. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use, especially in harder ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\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: 3\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: 0.6875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\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: 102\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\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 1023602\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51741276668210,"sku":"1023602","price":21.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/46c7c71a3c479a6420d0111d772858d6.jpg?v=1788830478","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1023602-straight-flute-tap-6-32-unc-hss-taper","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
