It is manufactured from vanadium high-speed steel and finished with a steam oxide coating to reduce friction and improve chip evacuation. With a 45-degree helix angle and 2 right-hand flutes, this tap pulls chips up and out of the hole, making it well suited for blind-hole applications. It carries a 2B class of fit and an H2 thread limit, delivering controlled tolerances appropriate for standard fastener assemblies. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for threading small-diameter holes in stainless steel, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel. The modified bottoming chamfer allows threading closer to the bottom of a blind hole than a standard plug tap while still providing modest lead-in. At 2.375 inches overall length with a 0.197-inch thread length, it fits standard tap holders and machine spindles used in manual and CNC tapping operations. It is commonly used in precision machining, MRO maintenance, and light fabrication where 4-40 UNC fasteners are standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle promotes upward chip flow in blind-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVanadium high-speed steel construction provides toughness and wear resistance across ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and helps prevent galling, particularly in stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer enables threading close to the bottom of a blind hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit and 2B class of fit ensure consistent, gauged tolerances for standard assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand flute direction paired with right-hand thread for conventional tapping setups\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 clamped and the tap is properly aligned before engagement. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material, particularly when tapping stainless steel, to reduce heat and extend tool life. Back the tap out periodically to break chips when tapping blind holes by hand.\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\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: Modified Bottoming\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: H2\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\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: 0.194 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 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: 0.110 inches\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\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, High-Carbon Steel, Low-Carbon Steel, Medium-Carbon Steel\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: 0.01 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: 1763901\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727510143282,"sku":"1763901","price":56.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/380f6952969dacc974e35e96e6691b2b.jpg?v=1788678710","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1763901-spiral-flute-tap-4-40-unc-modified-bottoming","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
