Made from cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) coating, this tap cold-forms internal threads without cutting, producing stronger thread walls through material displacement. The modified bottoming chamfer with 2.5 to 3 chamfered threads allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes. Overall length is 1.77 inches (45 mm), with a thread length of 0.44 inches (8 mm) and a tapping depth of 0.35 inches (9 mm). Part of the OSG EXOPRO XPF Series 16350, this tool is suited for precision threading in small-diameter applications handled by machinists and tool-and-die professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is engineered for both blind hole and through-hole threading operations across a wide range of materials. It performs in aluminum, cast aluminum, carbon steel, alloy steel, die steel, stainless steel, high-nickel alloy, and titanium. The TiCN coating reduces friction and improves wear resistance, making it a practical choice for production environments where tool life and thread quality matter. Right-hand thread direction is standard. This tap is applicable wherever M2x0.40 internal threads with a 6H tolerance class are required in tight or deep-cavity workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread forming (chipless) design strengthens thread walls through cold-working rather than cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt substrate provides heat resistance and toughness for difficult materials including stainless steel and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in high-volume threading applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer (2.5 to 3P) allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6H class of fit and D5 thread limit ensure dimensional accuracy for standard metric fastener engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with both blind hole and through-hole threading setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for M2x0.40 Metric Coarse thread forming in aluminum, cast aluminum, carbon steel, alloy steel, die steel, stainless steel, high-nickel alloy, and titanium workpieces.

Use a tapping fluid or cutting oil appropriate for the workpiece material, particularly with stainless steel, high-nickel alloy, and titanium. Secure the workpiece fully before tapping and ensure the tap is properly aligned to avoid galling or tap breakage in small-diameter applications. Power down or disengage all machine motion before changing or inspecting the tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2x0.40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric Coarse\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: D5\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: 2.5 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: 1.77 inches (45 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.44 inches (8 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 inches (9 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 inches (3.58 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.110 inches (2.79 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.76 mm\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 (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, Through-Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Cast Aluminum, Carbon Steel, Alloy Steel, Die Steel, Stainless Steel, High-Nickel Alloy, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16350 (EXOPRO XPF)\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: 1635002045\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744575619378,"sku":"1635002045","price":100.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/47f3aed5ffa63d26c86528f7a4ea9c31.jpg?v=1788858475","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1635002045-thread-forming-tap-m2x0-40-cobalt-ticn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
