Value Collection JY9036682 M14x2 Straight Flute Tap Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION JY9036682 is a straight flute tap designed for cutting M14x2 metric coarse internal threads in a variety of workpiece materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap delivers consistent thread geometry for general-purpose tapping applications. The bottoming chamfer configuration allows threading closer to the bottom of a blind hole, making it well suited for setups where thread depth is critical. With 4 flutes and a right-hand thread direction, it is compatible with standard tapping heads and hand-tap wrenches used throughout machining and fabrication shops.

This tap is intended for use by machinists, tool and die workers, and maintenance technicians working on metric-threaded assemblies. The M14x2 metric coarse specification is common in automotive, industrial equipment, and structural fastener applications. The bottoming chamfer is especially useful when blind holes require near-full thread depth from the bore floor. The 6H class of fit and D7 thread limit provide a standard tolerance suitable for most general-use metric threaded connections. Overall length is 3-19/32 inches with a thread length of 1-21/32 inches.

Key Features

• M14x2 metric coarse thread form for broad industrial and automotive compatibility
• Bottoming chamfer allows threading to near the bottom of blind holes
• 4-flute design provides balanced cutting action and chip management
• High-speed steel construction handles a wide range of workpiece materials
• 6H class of fit with D7 thread limit meets standard metric tolerance requirements
• Right-hand thread direction compatible with standard tapping equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard straight flute tap for use in manual hand-tap wrenches and machine tapping setups requiring M14x2 metric coarse threads with a bottoming chamfer and 6H class of fit.

Installation Notes

Tapping operations should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with proper speeds, feeds, and cutting fluid application for HSS tooling. Always secure the workpiece firmly and ensure the tap is aligned perpendicular to the hole before beginning the cut. Use an appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound to extend tool life and improve thread finish. For blind holes, periodically back the tap out to clear chips and prevent breakage.
