Value Collection JY4996062 Straight Flute Tap M15x1.00

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION JY4996062 is a straight flute tap designed for cutting M15x1.00 metric fine internal threads in a wide range of workpiece materials. This plug-chamfer tap features 4 flutes and is manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It is sized at 3.8125 inches overall length with a thread length of 1.8125 inches and carries a 6H class of fit with a D5 thread limit. Right-hand thread geometry makes it suitable for standard tapping operations on manual or CNC machine setups. Machinists and tool and die technicians rely on this tap for precision metric fine threading in production and repair environments.

This tap is intended for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments where metric fine thread profiles are required. The plug chamfer, which features a moderate lead-in, makes it well suited for through-hole tapping applications. It does not support coolant-through operation, so external cutting fluid application is recommended for optimal chip evacuation and tool life. The 6H class of fit is consistent with standard metric fastener tolerances used across industrial, automotive, and general mechanical assemblies.

Key Features

• M15x1.00 metric fine thread profile with right-hand cutting direction
• 4-flute straight design for controlled chip management in through-hole applications
• Plug chamfer provides a moderate lead-in suitable for general-purpose through-hole tapping
• High-speed steel construction offers good wear resistance across a variety of workpiece materials
• 6H class of fit with D5 thread limit for consistent tolerance compliance
• Bright, uncoated finish — no added coating to alter final cutting dimensions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for any application requiring M15x1.00 metric fine right-hand internal threads with a 6H class of fit.

Installation Notes

This tap should be installed by a qualified machinist using appropriate tapping equipment such as a drill press, mill, or tapping arm. Always secure the workpiece firmly and ensure the pilot hole diameter matches the required tap drill size for M15x1.00 metric fine threads before beginning. Apply cutting fluid throughout the tapping operation to extend tool life and reduce the risk of tap breakage. Power down and de-energize any CNC or automated equipment before manually adjusting tooling or making setup changes.
