Osg 1111502205 Spiral Point Tap M5x0.80 Metric Coarse Tin

Product Description

The OSG 1111502205 is a spiral point plug tap designed for cutting right-hand metric coarse threads in a wide range of materials. Built from vanadium high-speed steel and finished with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, it delivers extended tool life and reduced friction during tapping operations. The plug chamfer style provides a gradual thread lead-in suited for through-hole applications. With 3 flutes and a thread size of M5x0.80, it produces clean, accurate threads to an H6 thread limit tolerance. This tap is installed by machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians working in manufacturing, fabrication, and repair environments.

The 1111502205 is suited for through-hole tapping in both manual and machine tapping setups. It performs across a broad material range including aluminum, low-, medium-, and high-carbon steel, alloy steel, die steel, stainless steel, hardened steel, cast iron, high-nickel alloy, and titanium. The plug chamfer and spiral point geometry push chips forward ahead of the tap, making it well suited for production tapping where chip clearance is a priority.

Key Features

• M5x0.80 metric coarse thread form with right-hand cutting direction
• 3-flute spiral point design pushes chips forward in through-hole applications
• Plug chamfer for gradual thread engagement and reduced entry force
• Vanadium high-speed steel construction for toughness and wear resistance
• TiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life across a wide material range
• H6 thread limit tolerance for precise, consistent thread fit

Compatibility

Designed for through-hole tapping operations producing M5x0.80 metric coarse right-hand threads across a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials including aluminum, stainless steel, alloy steel, cast iron, titanium, and high-nickel alloys.

Installation Notes

This tap should be used with a properly sized tap wrench or machine holder rated for the shank diameter. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the hole is drilled to the correct tap drill diameter for M5x0.80 threads before starting. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce heat and tool wear. Coolant-through capability is not available on this tap, so external lubrication is recommended, especially in deep or interrupted thread applications.
