Made from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, this tap delivers reliable thread cutting performance in metal, plastic, and similar materials. The plug chamfer — typically 3 to 5 threads of taper — makes it suited for through-holes and moderately deep blind holes where a starting taper is acceptable. With an overall length of 6 inches and an H3 thread limit, it produces threads with the tolerance class required for standard fastener fits. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians commonly use this tap for hand tapping operations with a tap wrench or tap handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for hand tapping applications where an 8-32 UNC thread is required. The UNC thread form is one of the most common inch-series thread standards and is widely used in general mechanical assembly, light fabrication, and repair work across industrial, HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trades. The H3 thread limit is appropriate for standard class 2B fits used in most commercial fastener applications. The 4-flute design provides good chip clearance and balanced cutting action during manual threading operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-32 UNC thread form for common inch-series fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer with 3 to 5 threads of taper — suitable for through-holes and moderate blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute geometry for balanced cutting and chip clearance during hand tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide finish provides light corrosion resistance and reduces friction during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit for standard class 2B thread fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard hand tap for use with any tap wrench or tap handle that accepts the appropriate square drive shank for an 8-32 UNC plug tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by a machinist or maintenance technician using a tap wrench or T-handle tap wrench with the workpiece securely fixtured or clamped. Apply a suitable cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce heat and extend tool life. Back the tap off periodically during threading to break chips and prevent tap breakage. Inspect the tap for wear or chipping before each use, as a damaged tap can result in broken fasteners or stripped threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0033 pounds\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: JY99522757\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692052119858,"sku":"JY99522757","price":31.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e08bb46c3a0500509b3747e6866ada89.jpg?v=1788292422","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-jy99522757-hand-plug-tap-8-32-unc-4-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
