Thread forming displaces material rather than removing chips, which results in stronger threads and eliminates chip-related tap breakage. The modified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes. At 3.156 inches overall length with a 0.323-inch shank diameter, this tap fits standard tap holders used by machinists and maintenance technicians working in production or field repair environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole threading applications across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The H5 thread limit controls the tolerance of the finished thread, making it appropriate for close-tolerance UNF fastener applications in aerospace, automotive, and general industrial machining. It is installed by machinists and toolroom professionals using CNC machining centers, drill presses, or manual tapping equipment with appropriate tapping fluid for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/16-20 UNF thread size with right-hand thread direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer (2 to 2.5 chamfered threads) for threading close to blind hole bottoms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt construction with bright finish for heat resistance in demanding materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH5 thread limit for controlled tolerance in close-fit UNF applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming design eliminates chips, reducing tap breakage risk in blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement; compatible with external cutting fluid application\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 requiring 7\/16-20 UNF threads.

Use appropriate tapping fluid or cutting oil matched to the workpiece material to reduce tool wear and improve thread quality. Secure the workpiece fully before tapping to prevent movement, and ensure the tap is held perpendicular to the drilled hole to avoid thread misalignment. Power down or de-energize any CNC spindle before manually inspecting tap engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16-20 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: 20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H5\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\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blind Hole Threading\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\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 0.155 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: 1400141000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51736462000434,"sku":"1400141000","price":65.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f9e0a7535aeb52c331c9ab34d6077839_6df114b0-ed3a-44c3-8de8-dc8a1050fa8a.jpg?v=1788778030","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1400141000-thread-forming-tap-7-16-20-unf-cobalt-h5","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
