It produces a 1-11\/2 thread size with a 1-3\/4 inch thread length and features 5 flutes for efficient chip evacuation during cutting. The tap body is machined from high-speed steel for hardness and heat resistance under sustained cutting loads. An oxide gold finish provides a base level of corrosion resistance and reduces friction at the cutting edge. This tap is a hand or machine tool used by machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians to prepare threaded pipe connections in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pipe tap is suited for threading operations on pipe fittings, flanges, manifolds, and other components that require NPS internal threads. It is used in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping applications where straight pipe threads are specified. The 5-flute design supports use in both through-hole and blind-hole applications at standard feed rates. The 1.1250 inch shank diameter and 0.8430 inch square drive size are compatible with standard tap wrenches and machine tap holders of the appropriate size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-11\/2 NPS thread size for straight pipe thread applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-3\/4 inch thread length for adequate thread engagement depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-flute geometry promotes chip clearance and consistent thread form\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction withstands heat generated during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide gold finish reduces surface friction and provides light corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular hook angle for general-purpose threading in a range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard NPS straight pipe thread applications.

Always secure the workpiece firmly before beginning the threading operation and use an appropriate cutting fluid to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Back the tap out periodically to clear chips and reduce the risk of tap breakage. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use and replace if cutting edges are degraded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-11\/2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHook Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Drive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.8430 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20605\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693675708722,"sku":"20605","price":185.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dc26886b6ed53e37e01d3f6d9c082ab5.jpg?v=1788315907","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-20605-standard-pipe-tap-1-11-2-nps","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
