Value Collection JY9037136 M5x0.75 Straight Flute Tap Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION JY9037136 is a straight flute tap designed for cutting M5x0.75 metric fine internal threads in blind and through holes. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap delivers reliable thread-forming performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The bottoming chamfer allows threading close to the bottom of a blind hole, making it well-suited for tight-clearance applications. With four flutes and a 6H class of fit, it produces accurate, clean threads that meet standard metric fine tolerance requirements. Overall length is 2.375 inches with a thread length of 0.875 inches.

This tap is used in machining, fabrication, and maintenance applications where M5x0.75 metric fine threads are required. It is appropriate for manual tapping with a tap wrench or use in a drill press or CNC tapping setup. Common applications include threading holes in aluminum, mild steel, and similar materials in industrial and shop environments. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians are the typical users. The right-hand thread direction suits standard tapping operations without the need for reverse-cutting setups.

Key Features

• M5x0.75 metric fine thread size for precise, fine-pitch threading
• Bottoming chamfer allows threading to the base of blind holes
• 4-flute design provides balanced cutting action and chip control
• High-speed steel construction offers durability across common workpiece materials
• 6H class of fit produces threads within standard metric tolerance range
• D4 thread limit for consistent fit with mating fasteners
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose tapping applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or addition for standard M5x0.75 metric fine tapping operations. No specific machine or model compatibility is stated by the manufacturer for this tap.

Installation Notes

Machinists and maintenance technicians should ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is properly aligned before beginning the tapping operation. Use an appropriate cutting fluid to extend tap life and reduce the risk of breakage, especially in blind-hole applications. Power down any machine tool and clear the work area before changing or setting taps. Do not force the tap if resistance increases sharply, as bottoming taps have limited chip clearance near the bottom of a hole.
