Built from powdered metal and finished with a V (vanadium) coating, this tap delivers improved wear resistance and edge retention compared to standard high-speed steel. The 45-degree helix angle drives chips up and out of the flute during tapping, reducing the risk of chip packing in blind holes. With a 2B class of fit and H3 thread limit, it produces threads suited to standard fastener assemblies. It is intended for use by machinists, tool and die professionals, and maintenance technicians working on precision metalwork applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind-hole threading applications where a bottoming chamfer is required to cut threads as close to the bottom of the hole as possible. The 3-flute spiral design performs well across alloy steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, hardened steel, cast iron, aluminum, and cast aluminum. The 6-32 UNC thread form is commonly found in electronic enclosures, instrument panels, and light mechanical assemblies. With an overall length of 2.25 inches and a thread length of 0.248 inches, this tap fits standard tap handles and tapping chucks sized for the 0.141-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer allows threading to the full depth of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e45-degree right-hand helix flute evacuates chips effectively during operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowdered metal construction provides greater hardness and wear resistance than conventional HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV coating reduces friction and extends tool life across a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit and 2B class of fit meet standard commercial thread tolerance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through design — suitable for hand tapping and machine tapping with flood or mist coolant applied externally\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting 6-32 UNC internal threads in alloy steel, aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, hardened steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and stainless steel.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and that the correct tap drill size for 6-32 UNC has been used prior to tapping. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to maximize tool life and thread quality. Always release torque and back the tap out periodically when hand tapping blind holes to clear chips and prevent 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\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.248 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 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\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.783 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Powdered Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: V (Vanadium)\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: 16505\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.015 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: 1650509408\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749678317874,"sku":"1650509408","price":52.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6c255e70172cf0eb7b3c11ccc3ab52cb.jpg?v=1788909111","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1650509408-spiral-flute-tap-6-32-unc-bottoming","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
