It features a modified bottoming chamfer, which allows threading closer to the bottom of a blind hole than a standard plug or taper tap. The 45-degree helix angle drives chips up and out of the flute during cutting, reducing the risk of chip packing in interrupted or deep cuts. Made from vanadium high-speed steel with a steam oxide finish, this tap offers good lubricity and wear resistance across demanding tapping applications. It carries an H11 thread limit designation, indicating controlled oversize tolerance for use with standard UNC fits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for production and maintenance threading operations in alloy steel, carbon steel, cast iron, stainless steel, die steel, and hardened steel. The modified bottoming chamfer makes it the right choice when full thread depth near a blind hole bottom is required. With a right-hand flute direction and right-hand thread, it is driven by standard tapping equipment. The 3-3\/8 inch overall length fits most standard tap holders and CNC tapping heads used in machining and fabrication shops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-13 UNC thread form, right-hand thread direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModified bottoming chamfer for threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle evacuates chips upward, reducing chip packing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVanadium high-speed steel construction for toughness in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating improves lubricity and surface hardness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH11 thread limit for controlled oversize tolerance in standard UNC fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for tapping 1\/2-13 UNC threads in alloy steel, carbon steel, cast iron, stainless steel, die steel, and hardened steel.

Ensure the pilot hole is drilled to the correct tap drill size for 1\/2-13 UNC before tapping. Apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread quality. Do not reverse the tap before chips are cleared, and avoid excessive feed force when approaching the bottom of a blind hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-13\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: 13\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\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\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H11\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: 3.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.614 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.367 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.933 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.275 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOversize\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 290\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: 2942701\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732547076402,"sku":"2942701","price":92.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4d122ef474e04b77dc0994cb9e9aa056.jpg?v=1788744303","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-2942701-spiral-flute-tap-1-2-13-unc-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
