It produces a 1\/2-14 NPTF thread profile, the tapered form used for pressure-tight pipe joints without sealants. Built from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, it runs 4 flutes and covers a thread length of 1.375 inches. Overall length is 3.126 inches with a shank diameter of 0.6875 inches and a square drive size of 0.515 inches. Machinists, pipefitters, and millwrights reach for this tap when threading ports, fittings, or manifolds in production or repair environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for threading 1\/2-14 NPTF ports in carbon steel, cast iron, and aluminum workpieces. Typical applications include hydraulic and pneumatic manifold ports, pipe fitting bodies, pump housings, and valve blocks where a dry-seal tapered thread is specified. The regular hook geometry and standard thread profile make it appropriate for use in both manual tap handles and CNC tapping cycles at controlled feed rates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-14 NPTF thread form produces a dry-seal, pressure-tight tapered pipe thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides wear resistance across carbon steel, cast iron, and aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide finish improves lubrication retention and reduces initial wear-in friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute design balances chip evacuation with thread support in through and blind port applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular hook geometry suits both hand tapping and machine tapping operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare drive shank (0.515 inches) fits standard tap wrenches and machine holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting 1\/2-14 NPTF internal threads in carbon steel, cast iron, and aluminum workpieces per the NPTF dry-seal pipe thread standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed machinist or pipefitter should verify correct tap drill size and pilot hole alignment before tapping. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material and maintain consistent feed rate to avoid tap breakage. Secure the workpiece fully before tapping and use a tap guide or machine spindle to keep the tap perpendicular to the bore entry. Inspect threads with an NPTF plug gauge after tapping to confirm conformance before assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHook\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.126 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\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.279 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: 1313001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744458932530,"sku":"1313001","price":125.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aa3f8cc8e989fc6bf8222e68566123ab_5e0df363-ca04-481e-bf31-6d78f7a7ae2d.jpg?v=1788856768","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1313001-pipe-tap-1-2-14-nptf-4-flute-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
