Built from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this tap runs in the right-hand direction and carries a plug chamfer, making it suited for starting threads in pre-drilled holes while maintaining thread accuracy through a 3B class of fit and H3 thread limit. With four flutes and an overall length of 3.375 inches, it delivers reliable chip clearance and controlled thread geometry across a range of metalworking applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in maintenance, repair, and fabrication settings where 1\/2-12 UNS threads are required. The plug chamfer style makes it appropriate as a general-purpose tap for most threading jobs, handling both through-hole and moderate blind-hole work. It is commonly used by machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians tapping mild steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar machinable materials by hand with a standard tap wrench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-12 UNS thread size and standard for specialized thread form applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer with 3-5 thread lead for easy starting in pre-drilled holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit and 3B class of fit for consistent, accurate thread tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute straight flute design promotes chip clearance during hand tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides wear resistance across common machinable metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids on a wide range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling selection for applications requiring 1\/2-12 UNS right-hand internal threads, compatible with standard tap wrenches sized for the tap's square drive shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by hand using a standard tap wrench. Always start with a properly sized and deburred pilot hole per UNS thread standards before beginning the tapping operation. Apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to reduce heat and extend tool life. Back the tap off periodically to break chips and prevent tap breakage, especially in deeper holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNS\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\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\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: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOversize\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: JY4843991\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697187750194,"sku":"JY4843991","price":62.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1c7661656ac5ef8eedc0b93608902842.jpg?v=1788350378","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-jy4843991-hand-tap-1-2-12-uns-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
