Built from high-speed steel with a steam oxide finish, it produces right-hand internal threads to the 1\/4-28 UNF standard at an H3 thread limit. The plug chamfer style allows threading in through-holes, while the extended 6.0-inch overall length and reduced shank design provide reach into deep or recessed bores that standard-length taps cannot access. At 0.638 inches of thread length and a 2-flute spiral point configuration, this tap pushes chips ahead of the cut to keep flutes clear during production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap suits machining and maintenance applications involving cast iron, aluminum castings, aluminum, and carbon steel workpieces. The extended reach makes it well suited to production machining, toolroom work, and repair threading where standard-reach taps fall short. It is used by machinists, maintenance mechanics, and toolroom technicians on CNC equipment, drill presses, and hand-tapping setups. Thread class of fit is 3B, covering standard tolerance internal threads for general mechanical fastening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry pushes chips forward, reducing clogging in through-hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtended 6.0-inch overall length with reduced shank for reach into deep or recessed bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide finish improves lubricity and helps resist corrosion during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit and 3B class of fit for standard tolerance internal thread production\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand flute and thread direction compatible with standard tapping equipment and tap handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for threading 1\/4-28 UNF through-holes in cast iron, aluminum casting, aluminum, and carbon steel.

Secure the workpiece before beginning the threading operation and confirm spindle speed and cutting fluid are appropriate for the workpiece material. Never force a tap through a hole undersize for the thread specification, and back off periodically when hand-tapping to break chips. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use to avoid thread damage or breakage in the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-28\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.638 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.255 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReduced Shank\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.007 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.191 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\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\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Aluminum Casting, Aluminum, Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 917\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.105 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 1295101\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750063079730,"sku":"1295101","price":87.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0221e73c9a59ab533657480f34654330.jpg?v=1788913452","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1295101-extension-tap-1-4-28-unf-2-flute-spiral-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
