Osg 1651001908 Spiral Point Tap M14x2.00 3 Flute Ticn

Product Description

The OSG 1651001908 is a spiral point tap designed for right-hand threading in metric coarse applications at M14x2.00. Built from powdered metal with a TiCN coating, it delivers extended tool life in demanding production environments. The plug chamfer style provides a gradual thread lead-in suited for through-hole tapping operations. With a 3-flute configuration and D7 thread limit, it holds a 6H class of fit tolerance. The overall length is 110 mm (approximately 4.33 inches) and the thread length is 24 mm (approximately 0.94 inches). Machinists and toolroom professionals running CNC or manual equipment typically select this tap for high-volume threading work.

This tap is suited for through-hole tapping in a wide range of workpiece materials. The TiCN coating and powdered metal substrate (material grade PMT15) make it appropriate for alloy steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, die steel, aluminum, cast aluminum, and hardened steel. It belongs to OSG Series 16510 and is configured without coolant-through capability, making it compatible with flood or external coolant setups common in general machining and production shops.

Key Features

• M14x2.00 metric coarse thread form with 6H class of fit tolerance
• TiCN coating improves wear resistance and reduces friction on the cutting edge
• Powdered metal construction (PMT15 grade) supports use in hardened and abrasive workpiece materials
• Plug chamfer provides controlled thread engagement ideal for through-hole applications
• 3-flute spiral point design pushes chips forward ahead of the tap to clear the hole
• D7 thread limit with right-hand thread direction and no interrupted thread geometry

Compatibility

Designed for use in through-hole tapping applications across alloy steel, aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, hardened steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, stainless steel, and die steel workpieces. No specific machine or holder compatibility data was provided in the product record.

Installation Notes

This tap is installed by machinists and toolroom technicians operating CNC machining centers, drill presses, or manual tapping equipment. Ensure the tap is properly held in a suitable tapping chuck or rigid holder with correct alignment to the pre-drilled pilot hole before operation. Apply appropriate cutting fluid or flood coolant for the workpiece material being tapped. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use and replace if cutting edges show damage to avoid thread form errors or tap breakage.
