Built from cobalt high-speed steel with a steam oxide coating, it is engineered for durability and reduced friction in demanding tapping applications. The 4-40 UNC configuration with a modified bottoming chamfer makes it well-suited for threading close to the bottom of blind holes, where 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads provide controlled thread lead-in. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals select this tap for applications where chip-free threading and clean thread form are priorities across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole threading in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading to within a short distance of hole bottom, making it a practical choice for precision machined components in aerospace, automotive, and general manufacturing environments. It carries a Class 3B thread fit with an H3 thread limit, producing tight-tolerance threads appropriate for close-fit fastener assemblies. The right-hand thread direction is standard for conventional machine tapping setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming (chipless) design eliminates chip evacuation concerns in blind hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt HSS construction provides increased heat and wear resistance over standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and improves lubrication retention during tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads for threading near hole bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit and Class 3B fit for tight-tolerance thread production\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for blind hole threading in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel workpieces.

Power down or de-energize the machine and secure the workpiece before tool changes. Use appropriate tapping fluid or cutting oil for the specific workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread quality. Follow shop-floor speeds and feeds for cobalt taps in the applicable material — do not exceed recommended RPM for the work material and tap diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-40\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: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\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: H3\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 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.295 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.559 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\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HY-PRO NRT\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: 1400105301\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750557024562,"sku":"1400105301","price":35.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/91d0b5ecfa46d1987ea7772b4845ced6.jpg?v=1788916654","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400105301-thread-forming-tap-4-40-unc-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
