It features a bottoming chamfer for threading holes that require full threads close to the bottom, and three flutes to evacuate chips efficiently during the tapping operation. Manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this tap holds an H2 thread limit for consistent tolerance control. It carries an overall length of 1.9375 inches and a thread length of 0.625 inches. Machinists and maintenance technicians use it when installing threaded inserts to restore or strengthen stripped or worn threads in metal components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for use in a shop or field repair environment where STI threads must be cut prior to installing helical threaded inserts such as wire-type thread repair inserts. It is appropriate for manual hand-tapping operations in materials including aluminum, carbon steel, cast iron, and hardened steel. The 5-40 UNC thread size makes it a common selection for small fastener and instrument applications where thread restoration or reinforcement is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer allows threading to the base of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree flutes provide chip clearance and cutting efficiency in hand tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit delivers consistent, controlled thread tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles a range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose tapping without added coating cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSTI thread profile designed specifically for thread insert installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in 5-40 UNC STI thread insert applications in aluminum, carbon steel, cast iron, and hardened steel.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the hole is drilled to the correct STI tap drill diameter before starting. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to reduce friction and extend tool life. Reverse the tap periodically to break and clear chips, particularly in deeper holes or when working in cast iron or hardened steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.9375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1410 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1100 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, Hardened Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 126\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: 6006100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739536752946,"sku":"6006100","price":37.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6de99b267d5c6975001092619439928d_365bbc60-49d0-46a4-8ae7-197114f6217d.jpg?v=1788815897","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-6006100-hand-sti-tap-5-40-unc-h2-bottoming-chamfer","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
