Precision Twist Drill 1010149 Plug Tap 3/4-16 4.25 in

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 1010149 is a 1500 series plug tap designed for cutting internal threads in a wide range of materials. It produces a 3/4-16 thread form and measures 4.25 inches in overall length. Plug taps feature a chamfer of 3 to 5 threads at the lead end, allowing them to start easily while still reaching close to the bottom of a blind hole. This tap is suited for both through-hole and blind-hole threading operations and is handled by machinists, pipefitters, plumbers, and maintenance trades working in metal fabrication or mechanical repair environments.

This tap is appropriate for use in a broad range of workpiece materials, including steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, and similar metals commonly encountered in trade and industrial settings. The 3/4-16 designation indicates a 3/4-inch nominal diameter with 16 threads per inch, a fine thread pitch widely used in mechanical assemblies requiring strong fastener engagement. It is sold individually and fits standard tap wrench and tap handle tooling used in hand-tapping operations.

Key Features

Installation Notes

Hand taps should be installed by qualified machinists or tradespeople familiar with threading procedures. Always secure the workpiece before tapping and use appropriate cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend tool life. Back the tap out periodically to clear chips, especially in blind-hole applications. Inspect the tap for wear or damage before each use to avoid thread damage or breakage.
