Ground to a 5\/8-11 UNC thread form with a 2B class of fit, it delivers accurate, consistent threads suitable for general-purpose fastener applications. The three-flute, right-hand spiral point geometry pushes chips forward ahead of the cutting zone, making it well suited for through-hole tapping operations. Manufactured from high-speed steel and finished with OSG elektraLUBE coating, the tap provides reduced friction and improved tool life compared to uncoated equivalents. Thread length is 1-13\/16 inches and the thread limit is H5, ensuring compatibility with standard tolerance requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use in machine tapping operations across production and maintenance environments. The 5\/8-11 UNC size is common in structural, industrial, and mechanical assemblies where coarse-thread fasteners are specified. Suitable for tapping through holes in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, and hardened steel. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance mechanics working in job shops, manufacturing facilities, or MRO settings will find this tap appropriate for a broad range of threading applications. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 UNC thread form with 2B class of fit for standard fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry advances chips forward — optimized for through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree flutes provide a balance of chip clearance and cutting edge support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction withstands the demands of production tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eelektraLUBE coating reduces friction and extends tool life across a wide material range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH5 thread limit ensures dimensional accuracy within standard tolerance bands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction for conventional machine tapping setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for tapping 5\/8-11 UNC through holes in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, and hardened steel.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the spindle is properly aligned before beginning the tapping cycle. Always apply cutting fluid or verify that the elektraLUBE coating provides sufficient lubrication for the material being tapped. Do not reverse feed manually on CNC equipment without confirming the machine is programmed for synchronized tapping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8-11 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\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: H5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-13\/16 inches\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: elektraLUBE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOversize\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\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\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: 1243202\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748424188210,"sku":"1243202","price":99.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/336d4136f961cb23fe3151baf25e91af.jpg?v=1788893639","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1243202-spiral-point-tap-5-8-11-unc-3-flute-plug-2b","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
