Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a chrome finish, this tap features a plug chamfer and a D3 thread limit, making it well suited for general-purpose tapping in a range of metalworking and machining operations. The M2x.4 thread size and 6H class of fit meet standard metric tolerance requirements. With an overall length of 1.75 inches and a thread length of 0.4375 inches, this tap is sized for compact work envelopes where precision thread formation is critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use in production machining, toolroom work, and maintenance repair operations where metric threaded holes are required. The two-flute spiral point design pushes chips ahead of the cutting action, making it effective in through-hole tapping on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Right-hand thread direction is standard for conventional metric fastener applications. Licensed machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians are the typical users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2x.4 metric thread size with 6H class of fit for standard metric tolerance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry pushes chips forward, reducing chip packing in through-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer provides gradual thread engagement for reliable starting in pre-drilled holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction offers durability across common workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome finish helps resist corrosion and reduces friction during the cutting process\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eD3 thread limit supports consistent fit with mating metric fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use spiral point tap for through-hole metric tapping applications requiring an M2x.4 thread profile and 6H class of fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by machinists and toolroom professionals using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC machine spindle. Always ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the pilot hole is drilled to the correct diameter for an M2x.4 thread before tapping. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Inspect the tap for wear or damage before each use and replace if chipping or dullness is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2x.4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: D3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches (7\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: REGAL CUTTING TOOLS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 027711AS74\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"REGAL CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67907103654194,"sku":"027711AS74","price":40.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3d21771493af2a90031f88771864e43b.jpg?v=1791174407","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/regal-cutting-tools-027711as74-spiral-point-tap-m2x-4","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
