Built from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this tap handles 1\/2-13 UNC threading with a plug chamfer, making it suitable for through-hole and deeper blind-hole applications where chip control is manageable. The 4-flute straight design provides rigidity and a clean thread form. With an overall length of 3.375 inches and a thread length of approximately 1.154 inches, the tool fits standard tap wrench and machine setups. The H11 thread limit designation indicates the tap produces slightly oversized threads, which accounts for material spring-back in certain alloys. This tap is typically installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for threading operations in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel. It is appropriate for general production and MRO applications where a standard 1\/2-13 UNC thread is required. The plug chamfer — typically 3 to 5 threads of lead — makes this tap versatile for both through-hole and moderately deep blind-hole work. It belongs to OSG Series 101H and carries no coolant-through capability, making it best suited for hand tapping and conventional machine tapping with applied cutting fluid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-13 UNC thread form with 13 threads per inch for standard fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer provides a balanced lead suitable for through-holes and many blind-hole configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction delivers durability across a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH11 thread limit with 0.005 inch oversize allowance accommodates material spring-back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 straight flutes offer rigidity and consistent thread form in shorter-chipping materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction; no coolant-through — designed for external cutting fluid application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel workpieces requiring a standard 1\/2-13 UNC internal thread.

Secure the workpiece firmly and ensure the tap is properly aligned perpendicular to the bore before starting the cut to avoid tap breakage. Apply an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material before and during tapping to extend tool life and improve thread finish. When using in a machine setup, verify the tap holder provides adequate float to prevent axial overloading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-13 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\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: H11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmount Oversize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.154 inches (1-21\/32 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.811 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.367 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\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.275 inches\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: 101H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Cast Aluminum, Cast Iron, High-Carbon Steel, Low-Carbon Steel, Medium-Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 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: 1592500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51729184031026,"sku":"1592500","price":44.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/73b98404a5d655b7dd772a35b2ab4382.jpg?v=1788701571","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1592500-straight-flute-tap-1-2-13-unc-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
