Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap delivers reliable performance across a wide range of standard shop metals. It features a plug chamfer with 3 to 5 chamfered threads, which provides a balance between starting ease and thread engagement. The H2 thread limit holds tight tolerances for a 3B class of fit, making it well-suited for precision fastener applications. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance professionals install this tap by hand or with a tapping machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in general machining, maintenance, and repair operations where 6-32 UNC threads are required. It is appropriate for threading operations in aluminum, mild steel, brass, and similar machinable materials. With a 3 flute design, it offers good chip clearance and stable cutting action in standard through-hole and shallow blind-hole applications. The plug chamfer style makes it a common choice as a general-purpose starting tap when the threading operation begins from the open end of a workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-32 UNC thread form for standard inch-series fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer with 3 to 5 chamfered threads for easy starting and balanced engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 flutes for adequate chip clearance in through-hole and shallow blind-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit maintains tight tolerance for 3B class of fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction resists wear under standard tapping speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluid or tapping oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or general-purpose tap for applications requiring 6-32 UNC internal threads in compatible tapping chucks, T-handle tap wrenches, or tapping machines that accept straight-shank tools of this size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by a machinist or maintenance technician using a T-handle tap wrench, tap holder, or tapping machine. Secure the workpiece firmly before starting. Apply an appropriate cutting fluid or tapping oil to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Back the tap out periodically to clear chips, particularly in deeper holes, and avoid forcing the tap to prevent breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\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\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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-04426326\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701135900978,"sku":"MSC-04426326","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c32b24a483bb6e984b1abb25139f4213.jpg?v=1788398699","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04426326-6-32-unc-straight-flute-tap-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
