Manufactured from vanadium high-speed steel (HSS-E) with a steam oxide coating, it delivers improved lubricity and corrosion resistance during cutting operations. The plug chamfer eases entry into through-holes, while the spiral point geometry pushes chips forward ahead of the tap rather than packing them in the flutes. This 2-flute design with an H3 thread limit and 2B class of fit is suited for production threading on manual machines, CNC tapping centers, and hand-held equipment used by machinists and maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for threading through-hole applications in hardened steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and stainless steel workpieces. The steam oxide finish helps reduce galling when working stainless. At 2.0 inches overall length with an 11\/16-inch thread length and a 0.141-inch shank diameter, it fits standard tap holders and chucks used in light machining, fabrication shops, and HVAC or electrical panel assembly where 6-32 machine screw threads are common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-32 UNC thread form with 2B class of fit and H3 thread limit for standard tolerance internal threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral point design pushes chips forward, keeping flutes clear during through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVanadium high-speed steel (HSS-E) construction for increased wear resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and improves tap life in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer provides gradual thread engagement, reducing tap breakage on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, compatible with standard tap holders and tapping attachments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for use in hardened steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and stainless steel.

Always apply a cutting fluid or tapping compound appropriate for the workpiece material, particularly when threading stainless steel. Ensure the tap is properly aligned with the pre-drilled pilot hole before applying torque to avoid tap breakage. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use and replace at the first sign of degradation.\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: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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: 2.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.688 inches (11\/16 inches)\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: Vanadium High-Speed Steel (HSS-E)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\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: 300\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: 1730201\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740844163378,"sku":"1730201","price":35.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/01906a7d1d0d096cbf0b54e0ee760162.jpg?v=1788827801","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1730201-spiral-point-tap-6-32-unc-2-flute-plug","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
