Part of the EXOTAP VC-10 series, it cuts a 5\/8-11 thread with a plug chamfer and a 2B class of fit. The tap is manufactured from powdered metal and finished with a TiCN coating, which reduces friction and extends tool life under demanding cutting conditions. It has an overall length of 7.87 inches and a thread length of 1.9 inches. The H5 thread limit provides controlled oversize for reliable fit in tapped holes. This tap is installed by machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance professionals working in production or job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for through-hole threading applications in both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Recommended material applications include alloy steel, aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, stainless steel, hardened steel, and die steel. The right-hand thread direction and plug chamfer make it well suited for machine tapping where the tap enters an existing hole with a lead-in. It is not configured for coolant-through delivery and is not designed for interrupted-thread applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 thread size with 2B class of fit and H5 thread limit for dimensional consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer style provides gradual lead-in, ideal for through-hole machine tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute spiral point design pushes chips forward, keeping the cutting zone clear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN coating reduces friction and improves wear resistance across a wide material range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowdered metal construction provides toughness and consistent grain structure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXOTAP VC-10 series, Series 16535\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard production tap for machine tapping operations requiring a 5\/8-11 right-hand thread in the materials listed above.

Power down and secure the workpiece fully before beginning the tapping cycle. Use appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the material being threaded even though this tap does not use coolant-through delivery. Follow shop safety practices and applicable OSHA machine guarding requirements when operating tapping equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8-11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric\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\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: 7.87 inches (180 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.9 inches (27.70 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.48 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: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterrupted Thread\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: EXOTAP VC-10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16535\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 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: 1653504508\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51729437884722,"sku":"1653504508","price":214.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5bc9edb55c0d88838044d8d4ef38b68c_67bf2936-7f79-4274-970c-f3b171a5a8b5.jpg?v=1788704622","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1653504508-spiral-point-tap-5-8-11-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
