It produces a 1\/4-28 UNF right-hand thread using a modified bottoming chamfer with 2 to 2.5 chamfered threads, allowing threading close to the bottom of blind bores. Manufactured from powdered metal high-speed steel and finished with a TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) coating, this tap delivers high wear resistance and extended tool life across a range of workpiece materials. Overall length is 2.5 inches with a shank diameter of 0.255 inches. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians install this tap in CNC, manual, and hand-tapping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole threading in alloy steel, carbon steel, aluminum, stainless steel, die steel, and hardened steel. Its thread-forming action displaces material rather than cutting it, resulting in stronger threads with no chips to clear from the bore. Typical applications include precision fastener holes in machined components, tooling plates, and structural assemblies where thread integrity and blind-hole depth control are critical. The H5 thread limit designation suits close-tolerance fits commonly required in production and maintenance machining environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-28 UNF right-hand thread form, H5 thread limit for close-tolerance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer (2 to 2.5 chamfered threads) for threading near the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread-forming design produces chip-free threads with improved thread strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowdered metal high-speed steel construction for superior hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN coating reduces friction and extends tool life across multiple compatible materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel\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.

Power down and lock out any machine tool before setting up tooling or changing taps. Use a compatible tapping fluid or cutting oil appropriate for the workpiece material to protect the coating and extend tool life. Do not use coolant-through setups, as this tap does not support through-coolant.\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 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: H5\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: 0.5945 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.996 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: Powdered Metal High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride)\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: EXOTAP VP-NRT\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: 1405008108\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743573442866,"sku":"1405008108","price":80.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/81b90bf122da98d6d89522bfe7d950c6.jpg?v=1788848243","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1405008108-thread-forming-tap-1-4-28-unf-ticn-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
