Built from VC-10 high-speed steel and finished with a V coating, it delivers enhanced wear resistance and reduced friction during the tapping operation. The 2-flute, right-hand spiral design with a 45-degree helix angle evacuates chips up and out of the hole, making it well-suited for blind-hole applications. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of a hole. Thread limit is H2, indicating a normal class of fit for standard tolerance requirements. Licensed machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for threading 4-40 UNC holes in a broad range of materials including alloy steel, low-, medium-, and high-carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, and cast aluminum. Its spiral flute geometry makes it a practical choice for CNC machining centers, manual knee mills, and drill presses where chip control in blind holes is a priority. The 3.543-inch overall length and 0.318-inch shank diameter suit standard tap holders and collet chucks used in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-40 UNC thread form with right-hand thread direction and H2 thread limit for normal class of fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle spiral flutes promote upward chip evacuation in blind-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer enables threading close to the base of a hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVC-10 high-speed steel construction with V coating for extended tool life and reduced built-up edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design is not required, simplifying setup in standard machine tool environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with alloy steel, stainless steel, carbon steels, cast iron, aluminum, and cast aluminum workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in alloy steel, aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, hardened steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and stainless steel workpiece materials requiring 4-40 UNC internal threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use of this tap should be performed by qualified machinists or toolmakers familiar with tapping feeds, speeds, and torque limits for small-diameter taps. Always secure the workpiece firmly and ensure the tap is properly aligned before engaging the spindle to prevent tap breakage. Power down the machine and follow lockout procedures before changing or inspecting the tap. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to promote chip evacuation 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: 4-40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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: 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\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: Normal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.197 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.705 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.378 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.543 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.318 inches\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: VC-10 High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: V Coated\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: 16525\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.015 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: 1652505608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731110396210,"sku":"1652505608","price":115.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/788cc07605ffa0c35cc0af5d08cef99f.jpg?v=1788727073","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1652505608-spiral-flute-tap-4-40-unc-v-coated","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
