It features a modified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads, allowing it to thread close to the bottom of a blind hole. Manufactured from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a steam oxide coating, this tap is built to handle demanding tapping operations in a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is sized at 2.9380 inches overall length with a right-hand thread direction and an H4 thread limit, making it a precision fit for controlled-tolerance threading work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole threading applications in production and maintenance machining environments. The modified bottoming chamfer makes it appropriate for jobs where full thread depth close to the hole bottom is required. It is compatible with CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual tapping setups. Machinists and tool and die technicians working in job shops, production facilities, and maintenance operations will find it applicable across a wide range of workpiece materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread forming design eliminates chips, reducing the risk of chip packing in blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads for threading close to hole bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt HSS construction provides improved heat and wear resistance over standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating aids lubrication retention and reduces galling during tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH4 thread limit for controlled-tolerance UNF thread production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, suitable for standard tapping heads and tap holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for blind hole threading in alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel workpieces.

Use a cutting and tapping fluid rated for the workpiece material; steam oxide coating supports lubrication but does not eliminate the need for coolant or lubricant. Secure the workpiece and use a calibrated torque-limiting tap holder when possible to prevent tap breakage, particularly near the bottom of blind holes. This work is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians following shop safety procedures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-24 UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\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: H4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24\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\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.9380 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7520 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2520 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3810 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2860 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 0.145 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 1400137301\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744787956018,"sku":"1400137301","price":44.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/99212f58fd103ad7a5b223fa7e667cc0.jpg?v=1788860533","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400137301-thread-forming-tap-3-8-24-unf-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
