Built from high-speed steel with a steam oxide coating, it delivers reliable performance in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The plug chamfer provides a gradual thread lead-in suited for through-hole tapping applications. With a 2-flute design and an H3 thread limit, this tap holds close tolerances for 2B class of fit threads. Overall length is 2.125 inches, with a thread length of 0.39 inches and a shank diameter of 0.168 inches. It is used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople across industrial and commercial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is appropriate for through-hole tapping in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, and hardened steel. The plug chamfer style makes it a standard choice when the workpiece allows the tap to pass fully through the material. It suits benchtop drill presses, CNC tapping machines, and hand-tapping operations where a guided tap wrench is used. The 8-32 UNC thread size is commonly encountered in sheet metal, electrical enclosures, electronic assemblies, and light mechanical fastening applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-32 UNC right-hand thread form for standard unified coarse pitch applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides hardness and wear resistance across a broad material range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and provides mild corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer with 2-flute geometry suited for through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit maintains 2B class of fit tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement simplifies setup for manual and light CNC use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style cutting tool replacement for spiral point plug taps in the 8-32 UNC size, part of the OSG Series 105 tap line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTapping operations should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with proper speeds and feeds for the workpiece material. Secure the workpiece fully before tapping and ensure the tap is properly aligned to avoid thread crossings or tap breakage. Always apply an appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the material being threaded. Follow shop safety procedures and machine manufacturer guidelines when using power tapping equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-32\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\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\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.39 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.168 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: 0.015 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Cast Aluminum, Cast Iron, Hardened Steel, 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: 1212801\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740256829746,"sku":"1212801","price":23.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fa85f8432b67627d7d71aa355c8ba7de.jpg?v=1788823806","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1212801-spiral-point-tap-8-32-unc-hss-oxide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
