It produces a 5-44 UNF thread profile using a plug chamfer that progressively introduces the cutting edges, reducing initial cutting force. The tap is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) and finished with a steam oxide coating that improves lubricity and provides modest corrosion resistance during storage and use. With 2 flutes and a right-hand thread direction, the 1207201 is suited for through-hole tapping operations where chips are pushed ahead of the tap rather than backed out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for through-hole tapping applications across a broad range of materials including aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, and hardened steel. It fits residential, commercial, and industrial maintenance and fabrication scenarios where fine-thread fastener holes in small-diameter work are required. The 5-44 UNF designation is common in precision assemblies and instrument-grade hardware. OSG Series 105 taps are a standard catalog offering for shops and field technicians working with hand tap equipment or low-speed machine tapping setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-44 UNF thread form, Class 2B fit, Thread Limit H2 for consistent tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry pushes chips forward, suited for through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides toughness across a wide material range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating improves lubricity and reduces galling during tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for progressive thread engagement and reduced entry force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, no coolant-through requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or stock tap for any application requiring a 5-44 UNF internal thread in through-hole configurations across aluminum, cast iron, and carbon or hardened steel workpieces.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured before beginning the tapping operation. Use the correct tap drill size for a 5-44 UNF thread to achieve the specified minor diameter before tapping. When hand tapping, back off periodically to break and clear chips, even with spiral point geometry, to avoid tap breakage in harder materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-44\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\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.938 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.323 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\u003eInterrupted Thread\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: 0.015 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Cast Aluminum, Cast Iron, Low-Carbon Steel, Medium-Carbon Steel, High-Carbon Steel, Hardened 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: 1207201\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743133925682,"sku":"1207201","price":29.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/65398680501eed073eebed0f73ce970c_e3b9cd74-3dd5-4288-9dc0-e1f33d3e5400.jpg?v=1788843079","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1207201-spiral-point-tap-5-44-unf-hss-oxide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
