Built from vanadium high-speed steel with a steam oxide finish, it offers improved lubricity and corrosion resistance during cutting. The tap cuts a 1\/4-20 UNC right-hand thread to a 3B class of fit, making it suitable for precision threaded assemblies. With an overall length of 4 inches and a neck length of 1.5 inches, it provides the reach needed for recessed or deep-pocket tapping applications. A 3-flute spiral point design pushes chips ahead of the cut, reducing clogging in through-hole work. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance mechanics install this tap in manual tap handles or CNC tapping operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis extension tap is suited for threading carbon steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel in both production and maintenance environments. The reduced shank and extended neck length make it effective where standard-length taps cannot reach, such as counterbored holes, deep bosses, or fixtures with obstructed access. It belongs to the OSG Series 397 and carries a plug chamfer, which provides a gradual lead-in over several threads for easier starting in through-hole applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiral point plug geometry pushes chips forward, suited for through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVanadium high-speed steel construction handles carbon steel, hardened steel, and stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteam oxide finish reduces friction and provides light corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended neck length of 1.5 inches gives reach into deep or obstructed hole locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced shank at 0.255 inches diameter accommodates standard tap holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit holds tight tolerances for 3B class of fit threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard tap handles and CNC tapping heads that accept a 0.255-inch shank diameter.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the pilot hole is drilled to the correct tap drill size for 1\/4-20 UNC before starting. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Inspect the tap for chipping or wear before each use and never force a tap that has stopped rotating, as tap breakage in blind holes is difficult to recover from.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (0.594 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.255 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.191 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReduced Shank\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel, Hardened Steel, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 397\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.063 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: 1764901\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749094981938,"sku":"1764901","price":75.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4d8b2e3e73d4dd293de3eb0a68212612.jpg?v=1788901980","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1764901-extension-tap-1-4-20-spiral-point-plug","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
