It cuts a 6-32 UNC thread to a 3B class of fit using a plug chamfer style, making it well suited for tapping operations where the chip is pushed forward ahead of the cutting teeth rather than extracted toward the operator. The tap is manufactured from powdered metal (PMT15 grade) and finished with a TiCN (titanium carbonitride) coating, which extends tool life by increasing surface hardness and reducing friction. With a thread limit designation of H2, this tap holds tight pitch-diameter tolerances appropriate for precision threaded assemblies. Licensed machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users of this tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use in a wide range of metal materials including alloy steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, high-carbon steel, hardened steel, die steel, cast iron, stainless steel, aluminum, and cast aluminum. Its 3-flute geometry and spiral point design make it particularly productive in CNC tapping centers and rigid tapping setups where through-hole threading is required. The tap belongs to OSG Series 16515, a high-performance spiral point line engineered for demanding production environments where tool consistency and thread quality are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-32 UNC thread form with 3B class of fit for precision thread tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer distributes cutting load across several leading threads, reducing tap breakage risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN coating increases surface hardness and wear resistance across a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowdered metal (PMT15) substrate provides toughness and consistent grain structure superior to standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit ensures reliable fit with standard 3B-tolerance fasteners and inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute spiral point design pushes chips ahead into through-holes, preventing chip packing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for through-hole tapping in alloy steel, aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, hardened steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, stainless steel, and die steel workpieces.

Before tapping, verify that the drilled hole diameter matches the recommended tap drill size for 6-32 UNC to achieve proper thread engagement percentage. Use appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the specific workpiece material to extend tool life. Never reverse the tap under power without confirming the machine is configured for thread-synchronized retraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\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: 2.25 inches (56 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.37 inches (9.5 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Powdered Metal (PMT15)\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: 16515\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.011 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: 1651500608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743939395890,"sku":"1651500608","price":41.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f6c882806d4eaf8ffaefd657268d3076.jpg?v=1788851616","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1651500608-spiral-point-tap-6-32-unc-ticn-plug","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
