Built from cobalt high-speed steel with a bright finish, this tap is engineered for demanding threading operations in blind holes. The 7\/16-14 UNC thread size with a modified bottoming chamfer (2 to 2.5 chamfered threads) allows threading close to the bottom of a hole. The H6 thread limit ensures tight tolerance control. With an overall length of 3.156 inches and a tapping depth of 1.713 inches, this tap suits production and maintenance threading work performed by machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole threading applications across a range of materials including alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel. The thread forming method displaces material rather than cutting it, resulting in stronger threads and no chip evacuation concerns. This makes it well-suited for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual tapping operations where hole cleanliness and thread strength are priorities. The modified bottoming chamfer allows use in shallow blind holes where a standard taper or plug tap cannot reach full thread depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming (chipless) design produces stronger threads by cold-working the material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt construction provides heat and wear resistance for tough alloy and stainless steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer (2 to 2.5 threads) enables threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH6 thread limit provides consistent, tight tolerance thread production\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, 14 threads per inch, UNC standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement simplifies setup on standard machine tools\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.

Apply appropriate tapping fluid or cutting oil rated for the workpiece material to reduce tool wear and improve thread quality. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is driven on-axis to prevent tap breakage or off-axis threads. Always follow machine shop safety practices and power down or de-energize equipment before changing tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16-14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\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\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14\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\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: 3.156 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.858 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.713 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.323 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.242 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.406 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blind Hole Threading\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: 0.155 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: 1400139300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51747519594802,"sku":"1400139300","price":64.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e0a7535aeb52c331c9ab34d6077839_55a1381b-fb97-4779-9af9-2dcf39591a6d.jpg?v=1788881807","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400139300-thread-forming-tap-7-16-14-unc-cobalt-h6","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
