Part of the HY-PRO NRT series, this plug-style tap is manufactured from cobalt with a bright finish and carries an H6 thread limit. It produces 12-28 UNF internal threads by displacing material rather than cutting chips, which results in stronger thread forms and eliminates the need for chip evacuation. The overall length is 2.375 inches, with a thread length of 0.496 inches and a tapping depth of 0.933 inches. The 0.22-inch shank diameter and 0.165-inch square size are suited for standard tap holders and machine chucks used in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for through-hole threading applications in materials including alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel. The plug chamfer, with 4 to 4.5 chamfered threads, allows the tap to start easily in a pre-drilled through-hole and is commonly used in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual tapping operations. It suits both production runs and maintenance or repair threading tasks where UNF thread geometry is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming design displaces material to create stronger threads without cutting chips\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt construction provides heat and wear resistance in tough alloys and stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH6 thread limit ensures consistent fit within standard UNF tolerance class\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer with 4 to 4.5 chamfered threads for reliable through-hole starting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction compatible with standard tap holders and machine tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement simplifies setup in general-purpose machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for through-hole threading of 12-28 UNF right-hand threads in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel workpieces.

Power down or lock out the machine before loading the tap into the holder. Use an appropriate tapping fluid or cutting oil suited to the workpiece material to reduce galling, particularly in stainless and alloy steels. Verify tap holder alignment before starting to avoid tap breakage or thread distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12-28\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: 28\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 4.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Through-Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 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: 0.933 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.22 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.165 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2813 inches\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: 0.025 pounds\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\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: 1400125100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739434582322,"sku":"1400125100","price":31.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e0a7535aeb52c331c9ab34d6077839_69f29ee1-e087-4465-bb4d-d14c7e77321c.jpg?v=1788814542","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400125100-thread-forming-tap-12-28-unf-plug-cobalt-h6","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
