It produces a 1\/4-20 UNC right-hand thread using a modified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads, making it well suited for blind hole applications where thread depth control is critical. Constructed from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, it delivers extended tool life in demanding materials. The overall length is 2.5 inches with a thread length of 0.594 inches and a tapping depth of 0.933 inches. This tap is installed by machinists and tool and die professionals in production and job shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is rated for blind hole threading across a broad range of workpiece materials, including alloy steel, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The modified bottoming chamfer allows thread forming to begin close to the bottom of a blind hole, reducing the unusable thread runout at the base. The H4 thread limit designation ensures consistent fit and tolerance control within standard UNC specifications. It is commonly used in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and tapping machines where a rigid or semi-rigid tapping setup is employed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-20 UNC right-hand thread form, H4 thread limit for consistent tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads for close-to-bottom blind hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction for improved heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating extends tool life and reduces friction during the forming process\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChipless thread forming eliminates chip evacuation concerns in blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with material application codes P and N covering steels, stainless, and aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for blind hole thread forming in alloy steel, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, and aluminum workpieces.

Use a tapping fluid or cutting oil appropriate for the workpiece material to reduce heat buildup and extend tap life. Ensure the spindle and tap are properly aligned before engaging the workpiece to prevent tap breakage. This tap does not produce chips, but the workpiece and tooling should be inspected for any material displacement or burring at the hole mouth after forming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.594 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: 0.255 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.191 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 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: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\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\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Carbon Steel, Die Steel, Hardened Steel, Stainless Steel\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: 0.032 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: 1400126205\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51746436055346,"sku":"1400126205","price":38.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/05489dc5fb7a20be4262272e5172ba6a.jpg?v=1788870175","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400126205-thread-forming-tap-1-4-20-unc-cobalt-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
