Built from high-speed steel with a bright finish, it cuts a 1-72 UNF thread profile with a plug chamfer that eases entry into blind and through holes. The two-flute spiral point geometry pushes chips forward ahead of the cutting zone, reducing clogging and improving thread quality. It is sized for small-fastener applications where precision fit matters, conforming to a 2B class of fit and H2 thread limit. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals use this tap in both manual and CNC tapping operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for threading small-diameter holes in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, and hardened steel. It is a common choice in production machining, maintenance and repair, and precision fabrication environments where a 1-72 UNF thread is specified. The plug chamfer style makes it appropriate for through-hole applications as well as applications where adequate chip clearance is maintained.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-72 UNF thread profile with 2B class of fit for standard tolerance internal threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit for controlled thread sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-flute spiral point geometry pushes chips forward to clear the cutting zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for reliable thread entry in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles aluminum, cast iron, carbon steel, and hardened steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright finish with no coolant-through requirement for straightforward setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting 1-72 UNF internal threads in workpieces made from aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, and hardened steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap should be installed and operated by a qualified machinist familiar with tapping feeds, speeds, and cutting fluid selection for the workpiece material. Always secure the workpiece firmly and use appropriate tapping fluid or cutting oil to extend tool life and improve thread finish. Ensure the tap holder is properly aligned to the hole axis before engagement to avoid tap breakage, particularly critical at this small diameter. Inspect the tap for wear or damage before each use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-72\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\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: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.688 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.37 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 inches\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: 105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.009 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: 1205400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739389755698,"sku":"1205400","price":42.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1838a3b591a7f546a245e4b4d098268a.jpg?v=1788813951","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1205400-spiral-point-tap-1-72-unf-2-flute-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
