Built from vanadium high-speed steel with a steam oxide coating, it delivers resistance to heat buildup and wear during tapping operations. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes. With a 45-degree helix angle and 2 right-hand spiral flutes, chips are efficiently evacuated up and out of the hole, reducing the risk of packing and tap breakage. This tap is suited for use in manual and machine tapping setups where precision thread fitment is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is rated for use in stainless steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel. The H3 thread limit provides a tighter tolerance class suitable for standard UNC fit requirements. With an overall length of 1-7\/8 inches and a thread length of approximately 0.197 inches, it fits standard tapping chucks and holders used in drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand tapping fixtures. It is commonly installed by machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians working on precision assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-40 UNC thread size with 40 threads per inch for fine fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer for threading near the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree right-hand spiral flutes for upward chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVanadium high-speed steel construction for durability in ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and improves corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit for consistent tolerance control in standard UNC fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for use in stainless steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel.

Always ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is properly aligned before beginning the threading operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use and replace if damage is detected.\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 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\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\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\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\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vanadium High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches (69.1 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.197 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.772 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28.6 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (9.525 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 inches (6.452 mm)\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: 303\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.009 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, High-Carbon Steel, Low-Carbon Steel, Medium-Carbon Steel\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: 1748001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748691607858,"sku":"1748001","price":56.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/941b261aaf8b1b213ae5836f13703e82.jpg?v=1788896806","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1748001-spiral-flute-tap-4-40-unc-2-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
