Part of the OSG EXOPRO XPF Series 16250, it features a 5\/16-24 UNF thread form, a 3B class of fit, and a modified bottoming chamfer with 2.5 to 3 chamfered threads for use in blind and through-hole applications. The tap is manufactured from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a TiCN coating to improve surface hardness, reduce friction, and extend tool life in demanding materials. Overall length is 3.54 inches with a thread length of 0.56 inches and a tapping depth of 1.38 inches. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical tradespeople use this tap when precision-threaded fastener holes are required during equipment fabrication or repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole and through-hole threading operations in a wide range of materials including aluminum, cast aluminum, carbon steel, alloy steel, die steel, hardened steel, stainless steel, high-nickel alloys, and titanium. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes, making it a practical choice in tight-clearance assemblies found in HVAC equipment, enclosures, pump housings, and structural components. The right-hand thread direction and H5 thread limit support consistent tolerance control across production and field repair work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-24 UNF thread form with 3B class of fit and H5 thread limit for tight tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer (2.5 to 3 chamfered threads) for threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction for strength and heat resistance in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN coating reduces friction and wear, extending tool life in stainless steel, titanium, and high-nickel alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread forming design eliminates chips, reducing the risk of chip packing in blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with both blind hole and through-hole threading applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for threading operations in aluminum, cast aluminum, hardened steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, die steel, stainless steel, high-nickel alloys, and titanium.

Power down any machine tool and secure the workpiece before mounting the tap. Use a proper tapping fluid or cutting lubricant appropriate to the workpiece material to protect the coating and extend tool life. Do not exceed the recommended tapping depth of 1.38 inches to avoid tool breakage in blind holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-24 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: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\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: 2.5 to 3P\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: 3.54 inches (90 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.56 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.38 inches (35 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.318 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.238 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\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: 16250 (EXOPRO XPF)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.072 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: 1625056245\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51734135636274,"sku":"1625056245","price":142.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/97a1414e31a570fbb064964d71eb3551_ce0e7a67-08dd-4ce8-870d-847439a95f3c.jpg?v=1788761067","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1625056245-thread-forming-tap-5-16-24-unf-cobalt-ticn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
