Value Collection JY9036799 M2.5x0.45 Tap 3 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION JY9036799 is a straight flute tap designed for cutting M2.5x0.45 Metric Coarse internal threads in a variety of workpiece materials. Made from High-Speed Steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap produces right-hand threads and is engineered for use in bottom-tapping applications thanks to its bottoming chamfer. It carries a 6H class of fit and a D3 thread limit, making it suitable for standard tolerance threading work. The 0.5-inch thread length and 1.8125-inch overall length are sized for small, precision threading operations typical in machining and fabrication environments.

This tap is intended for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments where small-diameter metric threading is required. The bottoming chamfer allows threads to be cut close to the bottom of blind holes, which is critical in applications where thread engagement depth is limited. It is well-suited for use in manual tapping operations or low-speed machine tapping setups. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians working with metric fastener standards will find this tap appropriate for their threading requirements.

Key Features

• M2.5x0.45 Metric Coarse thread form for standard metric fastener compatibility
• Bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the base of blind holes
• High-Speed Steel (HSS) construction provides durability across a range of workpiece materials
• 3-flute straight flute design supports chip evacuation during threading
• 6H class of fit and D3 thread limit for standard tolerance compliance
• Bright, uncoated finish with no coolant-through requirement for straightforward application

Compatibility

Designed as a standard straight flute tap for M2.5x0.45 Metric Coarse threading applications in manual or machine tapping setups where a bottoming chamfer and 6H class of fit are specified.

Installation Notes

This tap is installed and operated by machinists or maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, tapping handle, or compatible machine tapping setup. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is properly aligned with the drilled hole before beginning the threading operation. Apply appropriate cutting fluid to the tap and workpiece to reduce friction and extend tool life. Never force a tap that has stopped advancing, as breakage in small-diameter taps is difficult to reverse.
