Built from powdered metal high speed steel and coated with AlCrN for heat and wear resistance, this tap handles demanding tapping operations where tool life and thread quality matter. It carries a 3BX class of fit and features a 45-degree helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation up and out of the hole. The plug chamfer makes it suited for through-hole applications. Overall length is 3.937 inches with a thread length of 0.661 inches and a tapping depth of 1.535 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is part of the SANDVIK COROMANT CoroTap 300 series, engineered for use in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys. It is well suited for CNC machining centers and production tapping environments in metalworking shops, tool rooms, and manufacturing facilities. The AlCrN coating supports dry and near-dry tapping as well as flood coolant setups, though this model does not include a coolant-through channel. It is sold individually and handles the thread sizes and material types most commonly encountered in general machining work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC thread form, right-hand, plug chamfer for through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlCrN coating improves surface hardness and oxidation resistance at elevated cutting temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle promotes upward chip evacuation, reducing chip packing in the flutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowdered metal HSS construction provides a finer grain structure and improved toughness over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3BX class of fit for tight tolerance thread production\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the CoroTap 300 series, rated for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous, and high-temp alloy materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for use in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys.

Verify spindle speed and feed rate against the CoroTap 300 series recommendations for the specific workpiece material before cutting. Inspect the tap for coating damage or chipping before each use. Do not reverse feed the tap before it has completed the full tapping cycle, as this can result in thread damage or tap breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3BX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.661 inches (16.80 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.535 inches (39.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.937 inches (100.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.381 inches (9.68 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Powdered Metal High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlCrN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: CoroTap 300\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.077 pounds\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: SANDVIK COROMANT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6967045\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SANDVIK COROMANT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51734938976562,"sku":"6967045","price":85.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a93bf1a50ecef9657a8296f39c8a693d_e0bda14c-d0f9-40ab-ba96-3129deac965e.jpg?v=1788768351","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sandvik-coromant-6967045-spiral-flute-tap-3-8-16-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
