Titan Usa TT93401 Pipe Tap 1/8-27 Npt Taper 4 Flute Hss

Product Description

The TITAN USA TT93401 is a standard taper pipe tap designed to cut internal NPT threads in pipe fittings, valves, and threaded port applications. Sized at 1/8-27 NPT, it produces the tapered thread form required for pressure-tight connections in plumbing, HVAC, and gas piping work. The tap is machined from high-speed steel and features a bright, uncoated finish. It carries a 4-flute design that balances chip clearance with thread quality in typical ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Overall length is 2.125 inches with a 0.75-inch thread length. This tool is used by plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians who need to tap threaded ports in components, manifolds, and fittings.

This tap is suited for production and maintenance applications requiring 1/8-27 NPT internal threads. Common uses include tapping sensor ports, pressure tap ports, drain plugs, and fitting connections in residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic, and HVAC systems. The taper chamfer eases thread entry and distributes cutting load across multiple teeth, making it appropriate for hand tapping and machine tapping operations on steel, cast iron, brass, and aluminum.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or service tap for any application requiring 1/8-27 NPT internal threads per Series 775 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician familiar with thread cutting practices. Always ensure the workpiece is securely clamped and the pilot hole is drilled to the correct tap drill size for 1/8-27 NPT before tapping. Use a quality cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Back the tap out periodically to clear chips, especially in blind holes or deeper port applications.
