Sized for 3-56 UNF right-hand threads, it is manufactured from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating to improve wear resistance and reduce friction during tapping. The modified bottoming chamfer, with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads, allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes. Overall length is 1.813 inches with a thread length of 0.496 inches. This tap is installed by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians working with small-diameter precision fastener applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole threading operations in a range of materials including alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel. Its cold-forming action eliminates chip evacuation concerns, making it particularly useful in blind hole applications where chip packing is a risk. The H2 thread limit and Class 3B fit make it appropriate for precision threading work requiring tight tolerances in both production and maintenance settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold-forming design creates threads without cutting chips, reducing blind-hole chip packing risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction provides elevated heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life across a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer (2 to 2.5 threads) enables threading near the base of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit and Class 3B fit for precision tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, compatible with standard tapping equipment and tap handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in blind hole threading of ductile materials including alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel, where cold-forming of 3-56 UNF internal threads is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThread forming taps require higher torque than cutting taps and should be used with a properly sized tap wrench or CNC tapping cycle that provides torque control. Always use a recommended tapping fluid or cutting oil appropriate for the workpiece material to reduce galling and extend tap life. Ensure the pilot hole diameter is sized correctly for thread forming rather than thread cutting, as undersized holes will cause tap breakage. Follow applicable shop safety practices and machine guarding requirements when tapping on powered equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-56\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\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\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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\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: 1.813 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.496 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.535 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: 0.110 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\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 0.005 pounds\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: 1400104305\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732543177010,"sku":"1400104305","price":39.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e0a7535aeb52c331c9ab34d6077839_6e931185-df50-45a4-891a-079ccd16a1f0.jpg?v=1788744248","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400104305-thread-forming-tap-3-56-unf-cobalt-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
