It carries an 8-32 UNC thread form with a plug chamfer, 3 flutes, and a 2B class of fit. The tap is manufactured from vanadium high-speed steel (HSS-E) and finished with a steam oxide coating that reduces friction and helps resist galling during threading operations. The H3 thread limit provides a controlled fit tolerance suitable for standard fastener assembly. Overall length is 2.126 inches with a thread length of 0.381 inches and a shank diameter of 0.168 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for threading operations in hardened steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and stainless steel. Typical applications include production machining, MRO repair work, and fabrication environments where reliable 8-32 UNC thread quality is required. Right-hand thread direction makes it compatible with standard tapping chucks and hand tap wrenches. It is used in both manual and machine tapping setups where coolant-through tooling is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-32 UNC thread form with 2B class of fit for standard fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer (4-5 thread lead) allows starting in through-holes or deeper blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVanadium HSS-E construction provides increased wear resistance over standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteam oxide finish reduces friction and improves chip flow during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit for consistent, controlled fit tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral point pushes chips ahead of the tap, keeping flutes clear in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for threading 8-32 UNC right-hand internal threads in hardened steel, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and stainless steel workpieces.

Ensure the workpiece is secured and the pilot hole is drilled to the correct tap drill diameter for 8-32 UNC before threading begins. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material, particularly when tapping stainless steel. Do not force the tap past resistance, as breakage in hardened materials can occur if feed rate or alignment is off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-32\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 Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\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 \/ Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.126 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.381 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.168 inches\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: 0.015 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112806\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: 1730301\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743163941170,"sku":"1730301","price":36.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a9b6a7cc2f5bad765e80ce88dea95c66.jpg?v=1788843410","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1730301-spiral-point-tap-8-32-unc-3-flute-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
