Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap is suited for general-purpose threading in softer materials where coolant-through capability is not required. The plug chamfer provides a moderate lead-in, making it appropriate for through-hole and deeper blind-hole applications where some thread engagement is already established before the tap begins cutting. With 3 flutes and an H2 thread limit, it maintains close tolerances for reliable fastener fit in production and maintenance threading operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in machine shop, maintenance, and light manufacturing environments where 4-36 UNS threaded holes are required in metals such as aluminum, mild steel, and similar machinable materials. The right-hand thread direction is standard for conventional fastener assemblies. At 1-7\/8 inches overall length, it is sized for use in standard tap handles, tapping heads, or machine tool holders. It is commonly installed by machinists, tool and die professionals, and maintenance technicians performing precision threading work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-36 UNS thread form for specialty unified thread applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across a range of machinable materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer provides 3 to 5 threads of lead-in for versatile through-hole and blind-hole use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit ensures consistent, close-tolerance thread fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute design promotes efficient chip clearance during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect thread dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard threading tool for applications requiring a 4-36 UNS straight flute plug tap in HSS with an H2 thread limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThreading operations should be performed with the workpiece or machine spindle fully stopped before tap changes or setup adjustments. Use appropriate cutting fluid or tapping compound for the material being threaded to extend tap life and improve thread quality. Ensure the tap is aligned perpendicular to the work surface before beginning the cut to prevent tap breakage and cross-threading. Machinists and maintenance technicians should follow facility safety protocols and applicable shop standards when operating tapping equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-36\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5625 inches (9\/16)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches (1-7\/8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: MSC-04424362\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697868276018,"sku":"MSC-04424362","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aadbdd5f1a11f975c30a4b957b5fca2f.jpg?v=1788355194","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04424362-straight-flute-tap-4-36","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
