Sized at 8-32 UNC with a modified bottoming chamfer of 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads, it displaces material rather than removing chips, producing stronger threads with a better surface finish. Built from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a steam oxide coating, this tap handles demanding materials and reduces friction during tapping operations. Overall length is 2.125 inches with a thread limit of H6. Licensed machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is rated for blind hole threading applications across a range of metallic workpiece materials including alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel. The modified bottoming chamfer allows the tap to reach near the bottom of blind holes, making it well suited for close-tolerance assemblies in production machining, maintenance, and repair environments where thread depth and fit are critical. Material application codes P and N confirm suitability for both ferrous and non-ferrous base metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming design displaces material for stronger, chip-free internal threads\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\u003eCobalt construction provides heat and wear resistance in tough alloys and hardened steels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and improves lubrication retention during tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH6 thread limit ensures close-tolerance thread fit for precision assemblies\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 thread forming in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel workpieces.

Apply a suitable tapping fluid or cutting oil to the tap and workpiece before use. Secure the workpiece and ensure the tap is driven in axial alignment to prevent tap breakage or thread distortion. Power down and lock out any machine tool before changing or inspecting taps per standard shop safety practice.\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\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32\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 Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H6\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\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\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blind Hole Threading\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: 0.015 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: 1400114601\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727419408690,"sku":"1400114601","price":30.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e0a7535aeb52c331c9ab34d6077839_7c574ee8-d499-49e8-b2e0-d5f424a5c451.jpg?v=1788677676","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400114601-thread-forming-tap-8-32-unc-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
