Manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it features four flutes and an H3 thread limit for close tolerance work. The tap has a 0.75 inch thread length and a 2.125 inch overall length. It is suited for use in machine shop, maintenance, and production environments where consistent 2B class of fit threads are needed in steel, aluminum, cast iron, and similar materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bottoming tap is used in applications where a spiral-point or plug tap has already started the thread and full engagement to the bottom of a blind hole is required. It is appropriate for both manual tapping with a tap wrench and machine tapping operations at moderate speeds. The right-hand thread direction covers the vast majority of standard fastener applications. At 0.06 pounds, the tool is lightweight and easy to handle during bench or fixture work. No coolant-through feature is present, so flood or brush-applied cutting fluid should be used when tapping harder materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer allows threading to within 1-2 threads of a blind hole bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides good wear resistance across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit ensures consistent 2B class of fit for standard fastener clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour straight flutes aid chip clearance in through-hole and shallow blind-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish allows easy visual inspection of cutting edge condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction compatible with standard 8-32 UNC hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting 8-32 UNC internal threads with a 2B class of fit.

Always drill the correct tap drill size for 8-32 UNC before starting the thread. Apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use, and do not apply excessive torque, particularly when tapping near the bottom of a blind hole with a bottoming chamfer.\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\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: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 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\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-04437331\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696305406258,"sku":"MSC-04437331","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cef37aadd63b58003f3a224fa76c5e6c.jpg?v=1788341276","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04437331-straight-flute-tap-8-32-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
