Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a steam oxide coating, this plug-chamfer tap drives chips forward ahead of the cutting zone, making it well-suited for through-hole tapping applications. It features 2 flutes, an H3 thread limit, and a 2B class of fit, delivering accurate thread geometry consistent with standard UNC tolerance requirements. Overall length is 2 inches, with a thread length of 0.39 inches and a shank diameter of 0.141 inches. The steam oxide finish reduces friction and provides a measure of corrosion resistance during service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in production and maintenance machining environments where 6-32 UNC through-holes are required in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, and hardened steel. It is appropriate for use in manual tapping handles, drill presses, and CNC tapping operations where right-hand thread direction is specified. The plug chamfer provides a gradual lead-in, making it a reliable choice for general-purpose through-hole work across both job shop and production settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry pushes chips forward, reducing clogging in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability across a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and provides light corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit with 2B class of fit meets standard UNC tolerance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer offers gradual lead-in suitable for general-purpose through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction; no coolant-through feature required for standard applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting 6-32 UNC internal threads in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, and hardened steel workpieces.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is properly aligned to the drilled pilot hole before engagement. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread finish. Never reverse a spiral point tap under load without fully disengaging from the thread to avoid breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.39 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 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: 105A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: 1611401\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51742281826610,"sku":"1611401","price":33.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9a1008c4f0893b6f9825ed4611d7036f.jpg?v=1788836442","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1611401-spiral-point-tap-6-32-unc-hss-oxide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
