Titan Usa TT93229 M5x0.8 Spiral Point Plug Tap Hss

Product Description

The TITAN USA TT93229 is a spiral point plug tap designed for through-hole threading in metric applications. It cuts an M5x0.8 thread profile and is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish. The spiral point geometry pushes chips forward ahead of the cutting action, making it well suited for through-hole work where chip evacuation is critical. With 2 flutes, a plug chamfer, and a D4 thread limit, this tap delivers accurate 6H class of fit threads in a range of general-purpose materials. Overall length is 2.375 inches with a thread length of 0.875 inches.

This tap is intended for general-purpose through-hole threading in metalworking and machining environments. It is a standard choice for production and maintenance work involving M5x0.8 metric fastener holes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Right-hand thread direction is standard. The plug chamfer provides a good balance between easy starting and thread length engagement, making it appropriate for both manual and machine tapping operations in job shops, maintenance facilities, and light manufacturing settings.

Key Features

• M5x0.8 metric thread size with 6H class of fit for standard tolerance threading
• Spiral point geometry pushes chips forward, optimized for through-hole applications
• High-speed steel construction for general-purpose material compatibility
• Plug chamfer for reliable thread starting and engagement
• D4 thread limit for consistent fit across production runs
• Bright, uncoated finish; no coolant-through feature required for typical applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for through-hole metric tapping operations requiring an M5x0.8 thread profile in general-purpose machining setups.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC machine spindle. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured before beginning the tapping operation. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Confirm spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the material and tap diameter before engaging the cut.
