Built from cobalt high-speed steel with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, it carries a 1\/4-20 UNC thread form in a modified bottoming chamfer configuration with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads. The H6 thread limit ensures consistent fit for standard tolerance applications. At 2.5 inches overall length with a 0.594-inch thread length and a 0.255-inch shank diameter, it is sized for use in hand-held tap handles or machine tapping setups. Licensed machinists and tooling technicians are the primary users of this tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for blind hole threading applications across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. The modified bottoming chamfer allows the tap to reach closer to the bottom of a blind hole than a standard plug chamfer while still providing adequate lead-in for alignment. It is well suited for production or maintenance tapping in materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, die steel, and hardened steel. The HY-PRO NRT series design supports both hand and machine tapping operations where thread forming rather than thread cutting is the preferred method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming design cold-works the hole wall, producing stronger threads than cut tapping in ductile materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction provides elevated heat and wear resistance compared to standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in high-cycle or abrasive applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads allows tapping close to blind hole bottoms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH6 thread limit suits standard tolerance fits for 1\/4-20 UNC fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction for use with standard tapping equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for use in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel workpieces.

Power down or disengage all rotating equipment before loading or changing taps. Use a cutting or tapping fluid compatible with the workpiece material to reduce heat buildup, especially in stainless steel or hardened steel applications. This tap does not produce chips, but the pilot hole must be clean and free of burrs before tapping to avoid galling or tap breakage.\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 UNC\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: H6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20\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: 2.5 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\/Finish\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 (14001)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.033 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: 1400126405\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728559669554,"sku":"1400126405","price":38.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a88e4c53ddb20b95c31bd42e1c8fed25.jpg?v=1788693337","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400126405-thread-forming-tap-1-4-20-unc-cobalt-tin-h6","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
