Made from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a steam oxide coating, this bottoming-style tap is built for use in blind hole applications where full thread depth close to the bottom of the bore is required. The cobalt substrate improves hardness and heat resistance compared to standard HSS, making it suitable for demanding materials. With 1 to 1.5 chamfered threads and a Class 6H fit at Thread Limit D9, it delivers accurate, consistent threads in production and maintenance environments. Licensed machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is rated for blind hole threading in a broad range of metallic materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The thread forming process cold-forms the thread profile rather than cutting, eliminating chips and reducing the risk of chip packing in blind holes. It is well-suited for both CNC tapping centers and manual tap handles in job shop, production machining, and MRO settings where M8x1.25 threads are common in fastener bosses, fluid port fittings, and structural assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt HSS construction for improved hardness and thermal resistance in tough materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and improves lubricity during the forming process\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer with 1 to 1.5 chamfered threads for threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming design eliminates chips, reducing tap breakage risk in blind hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 6H fit at Thread Limit D9 for accurate, standardized metric thread production\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with alloy steel, carbon steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, and aluminum\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 requiring M8x1.25 metric coarse internal threads.

Power down or disengage the spindle and apply cutting fluid or tapping compound rated for the workpiece material before beginning the tapping cycle. Ensure the tap is aligned perpendicular to the workpiece surface to avoid thread distortion or tap breakage. Do not use this tap for through-hole applications where chip-clearing geometry is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M8x1.25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfered Threads\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 to 1.5P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: D9\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 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.7165 inches (69.10 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5906 inches (15.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1260 inches (28.60 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3180 inches (8.08 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2380 inches (6.05 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.53 mm\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: 0.055 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: 1410104301\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749899436338,"sku":"1410104301","price":34.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b1909c6a23cc61f2d08c1eb5012e735d.jpg?v=1788911852","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1410104301-thread-forming-tap-m8x1-25-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
