It operates on a fluteless principle, displacing material rather than removing it, which produces stronger threads with no chips to evacuate. Built from cobalt high-speed steel with a steam oxide coating, it handles the heat and tool pressure typical of thread forming in tougher alloys. The tap carries a modified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads, an H4 thread limit, and targets 8-32 UNC thread profiles. Overall length is 2.125 inches with a tapping depth of 0.752 inches. Licensed trades and machining professionals install this tap in production and maintenance 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 modified bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes where a standard taper or plug chamfer would leave unthreaded material. It is commonly used in job shops, maintenance repair operations, and production machining where chip-free threading and thread strength are priorities. Right-hand thread direction is standard. Material application codes P and N indicate suitability for steels and non-ferrous metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFluteless thread forming design produces stronger threads and eliminates chip evacuation concerns in blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction provides heat resistance for tougher alloy and stainless steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and improves lubricity during the forming process\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads allows threading close to blind hole bottoms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH4 thread limit for consistent 8-32 UNC thread tolerance output\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand 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\u003eDesigned for blind hole threading in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel workpieces. Part of the OSG HY-PRO NRT series 14001. Fits standard 0.168-inch shank tool holders and tap chucks sized for number 8 machine taps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThread forming taps require a precisely sized forming tap drill hole, which differs from a cutting tap drill size — consult OSG or standard forming tap drill charts for the correct hole diameter before tapping. Use a cutting fluid or tapping compound rated for the workpiece material, as thread forming generates higher torque than cutting taps and lubrication is critical. Secure the workpiece firmly and ensure the tap enters the hole on-axis to avoid tap breakage. This tap does not produce chips, but the work area and tool should still be cleaned of metal dust after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\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\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.374 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.752 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.168 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.131 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.250 inches\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: Steam Oxide\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 14001\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.005 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: 1400114401\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731527303474,"sku":"1400114401","price":30.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e0a7535aeb52c331c9ab34d6077839_ebd71a3a-3396-4d8d-a2de-f98d29eb65f3.jpg?v=1788732155","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400114401-thread-forming-tap-8-32-unc-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
