It produces a 1\/4-28 UNF right-hand thread using a modified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads, making it suitable for blind hole applications where thread depth is critical. The tap is made from cobalt high-speed steel with a bright finish and carries an H2 thread limit. Overall length is 2.5 inches, with a thread length of 0.594 inches and a tapping depth of 0.933 inches. Shank diameter is 0.255 inches. Licensed HVAC, mechanical, and industrial technicians use this tap for precision threading in tight-tolerance assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for blind hole threading in a range of metallic workpiece materials. Its cobalt construction handles demanding materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of a blind hole, which is common in manifold blocks, bracket fasteners, and structural assemblies across HVAC, refrigeration, and general mechanical trade work. The H2 thread limit provides a standard fit suitable for most UNF fastener pairings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming design displaces material rather than cutting, producing stronger threads with no chips\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction for use in hardened steel, stainless steel, and other tough alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads for blind hole threading close to the hole bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit for consistent, standard-fit 1\/4-28 UNF thread geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright finish with no coolant-through requirement, simplifying setup in standard drill press or tapping operations\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 threading in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel workpieces.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and apply appropriate tapping fluid for the base material, particularly when working with stainless or hardened steel. Use a calibrated torque-limiting tap handle or CNC rigid tapping cycle to avoid overloading the tap shank. Always power down and de-energize any machine tool before changing or inspecting tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-28 UNF\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\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: H2\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: Bright\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: 0.045 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: 1400128200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732351516978,"sku":"1400128200","price":28.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e0a7535aeb52c331c9ab34d6077839_5cc09121-54ea-4d61-8ca2-8c88c84ddbdb.jpg?v=1788741949","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400128200-thread-forming-tap-1-4-28-unf-cobalt-hy-pro-nrt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
