Built from powdered metal and finished with a TiCN coating, this tap delivers increased surface hardness and wear resistance compared to standard HSS tools. It features a 45-degree helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation out of the hole, reducing the risk of chip packing during through-hole and shallow blind-hole tapping operations. With a semi-bottoming (modified bottoming) chamfer and a right-hand flute direction, it is suited for jobs requiring thread engagement close to the bottom of a hole. Licensed HVAC techs, machinists, and production floor operators will recognize this as an OSG Series 16525 production tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is built for use in alloy steel, aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, hardened steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and stainless steel workpieces. The 2B class of fit and H5 thread limit make it appropriate for general-purpose threaded assemblies requiring standard tolerance. It is well suited for CNC tapping centers, turret lathes, and manual tapping applications in job shops, tool rooms, and production environments where consistent thread quality is required across multiple materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-13 UNC right-hand thread, 2B class of fit, H5 thread limit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle for effective chip evacuation in blind and through holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSemi-bottoming (modified bottoming) chamfer for threading close to hole bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN coating increases surface hardness and extends tool life across abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowdered metal construction provides uniform grain structure and toughness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible material range includes stainless steel, hardened steel, cast iron, and aluminum alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through design; suitable for standard flood or mist coolant delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for tapping 1\/2-13 UNC threads to a 2B class of fit in alloy steel, aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, hardened steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and stainless steel.

Always ensure the workpiece is properly fixtured and that spindle speed and feed rate match the material and tap manufacturer recommendations for the selected material. Verify correct drill size for a 1\/2-13 UNC tap prior to tapping; an undersized pilot hole will overload the tap and cause breakage. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant for the workpiece material to reduce heat and extend tool life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-13 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\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: H5\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\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Semi-Bottoming (Modified Bottoming)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.614 inches (15.60 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.87 inches (180.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.367 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.835 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.835 inches (72.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.275 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOversize\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16525\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.211 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 1652503308\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51734756819250,"sku":"1652503308","price":136.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5a3d5148ba60e634ad04e43255855481.jpg?v=1788766641","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1652503308-spiral-flute-tap-1-2-13-unc-3-flutes","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
