The 4-flute, right-hand spiral design with a 15-degree helix angle evacuates chips upward out of blind and through holes, reducing the risk of chip packing during the tapping cycle. Manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright finish, the tap delivers consistent thread form geometry across production and maintenance applications. Thread length measures 1-3\/8 inches, overall length is 3-1\/8 inches, and the shank diameter is 0.6875 inches. The bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of a hole where thread engagement depth is critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for threading pipe fittings, manifolds, ports, and housings in plumbing, hydraulic, pneumatic, and general industrial applications. The NPT thread standard produces a tapered thread profile that creates a pressure-tight seal when properly assembled with compatible fittings. Material compatibility includes aluminum, carbon steel, cast iron, and hardened steel, making the 1252100 appropriate for job shop, MRO, and production floor environments where diverse workpiece materials are encountered. It belongs to OSG Series S125.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-14 NPT thread size with tapered thread form for pressure-tight pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute right-hand spiral design at 15-degree helix angle for upward chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer allows threading close to the base of a blind hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides wear resistance across multiple workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright finish  -  no coating applied, suitable for use with cutting fluid or tap oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with aluminum, carbon steel, cast iron, and hardened steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting 1\/2-14 NPT internal pipe threads in aluminum, carbon steel, cast iron, and hardened steel workpieces.

Secure the workpiece fully before initiating the tapping cycle. Apply a suitable cutting fluid or tap oil to extend tool life and improve thread finish. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use and replace any tap showing visible damage to avoid thread quality issues or tool breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-14 NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/8 inches (3.126 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.515 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4685 inches\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: Bright\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, Hardened Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: S125\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.287 pounds\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: 1252100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51741296492850,"sku":"1252100","price":148.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/00689d57808ab303330eb859f1f78824.jpg?v=1788830605","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1252100-spiral-flute-pipe-tap-1-2-14-npt-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
