It uses plastic deformation to create strong, work-hardened threads in ductile materials. The tap is manufactured from cobalt high-speed steel and features a titanium nitride (TiN) coating for extended tool life and reduced friction. Built to an 8-32 UNC thread standard with a plug chamfer, it carries a Thread Limit of H4 and is configured for right-hand, through-hole threading applications. Licensed tradespeople and machinists working in precision fabrication and maintenance environments rely on this style of tap where thread integrity and surface finish are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap suits through-hole threading operations in alloy steel, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The plug chamfer with 4 to 4.5 chamfered threads makes it appropriate for starting in a pre-drilled through hole. At 2.125 inches overall length and a tapping depth of 0.752 inches, it fits standard drill press, CNC, and hand-tapping setups encountered in HVAC equipment fabrication, mechanical assembly, and facilities maintenance work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction for increased hardness and heat resistance compared to standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and improves wear resistance across a broad range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming (chipless) design eliminates chip evacuation concerns in blind and through holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH4 thread limit ensures consistent fit tolerance for 8-32 UNC threaded assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand, plug chamfer configuration covers the majority of standard through-hole production tapping scenarios\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible material applications include 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 through-hole thread forming in ductile metals including alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel.

Adequate lubrication or cutting fluid is essential when tapping steel and stainless steel to prevent galling and premature tool wear. Power down and secure any machine spindle before changing or inspecting the tap. Follow applicable shop safety practices and machine-guarding requirements during all tapping operations.\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfered Threads\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 to 4.5P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H4\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: 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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Through-Hole Threading\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: 0.015 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: 1400115305\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51736840995122,"sku":"1400115305","price":38.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e0a7535aeb52c331c9ab34d6077839_c9d3e88c-3918-41ae-846a-a1364cbac717.jpg?v=1788780951","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400115305-thread-forming-tap-8-32-unc-plug-cobalt-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
