Unlike cutting taps, thread forming taps cold-form threads by displacing material rather than cutting chips, producing stronger threads with better surface finish. This tap is manufactured from cobalt high-speed steel for added heat and wear resistance, and carries a TiN (titanium nitride) coating to further extend tool life. The modified bottoming chamfer, with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads, allows threading closer to the bottom of blind holes than a standard plug or taper chamfer. It is part of the OSG HY-PRO NRT series and targets precision threading work in machine shops and production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole threading applications across a range of materials including alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel. The cobalt construction and TiN coating make it particularly effective where heat generation and tool wear are concerns, such as threading stainless steel or hardened alloys. It is sized for 2-56 UNC thread forms and is appropriate for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and tapping machines where a Class 3B thread fit is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming (chipless) design produces stronger threads by cold-working material rather than cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction provides increased heat and abrasion resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating extends tool life and reduces friction during tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer (2 to 2.5 threads) enables threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, Class 3B fit, Thread Limit H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through design; suitable for external coolant or cutting fluid application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for 2-56 UNC blind hole threading in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel workpieces.

Ensure the workpiece and machine spindle are properly aligned to avoid tap breakage at this small diameter. Apply appropriate tapping fluid or cutting oil for the workpiece material, particularly when working with stainless steel or hardened alloys. When removing the tap from a blind hole, reverse rotation carefully to avoid damaging the formed threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-56\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 56\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Modified Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfered Threads\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 to 2.5P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\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: Cobalt High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.437 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.476 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blind Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Carbon Steel, Die Steel, Hardened Steel, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HY-PRO NRT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: 1400102505\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737956122930,"sku":"1400102505","price":42.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/978104d18b363f66dcb184815f488f0b.jpg?v=1788795268","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400102505-thread-forming-tap-2-56-unc-cobalt-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
