Precision Twist Drill 6007532 Plug Tap 5/8-11 Hss

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6007532 is a plug tap designed for cutting internal threads in a wide range of materials. It features a 5/8-11 thread profile, a plug chamfer for general-purpose threading work, and a straight-flute geometry with 4 flutes. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), this tap delivers the hardness and wear resistance needed for production and maintenance threading tasks. The plug chamfer style sits between taper and bottoming configurations, making it the most common choice for starting threads in both through holes and blind holes.

This tap is suited for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and job sites where standard 5/8-11 UNC threads are required. The straight-flute design works well in a variety of materials including mild steel, aluminum, brass, and plastics. It is appropriate for hand tapping and compatible with standard tap wrenches and tapping fixtures. The 5/8-11 thread size is a common coarse-thread fastener specification found in structural and mechanical assemblies across industrial and commercial applications.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hand tap for use with standard 5/8-11 UNC thread applications in through or blind hole configurations across a wide variety of workpiece materials.

Installation Notes

This tap is installed by machinists and maintenance technicians using a standard tap wrench or tapping fixture. Before tapping, drill the correct tap drill size for a 5/8-11 thread and ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped to reduce heat and extend tap life. Back off periodically during tapping to break chips and prevent binding or tap breakage.
