Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap is suited for general-purpose threading in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It features a 5\/8-11 UNC thread form, 4 flutes for efficient chip clearance, and a plug chamfer that distributes cutting load across the leading threads. Thread length is 1-13\/16 inches and overall length is 3-13\/16 inches. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance trades use this tap in production and repair threading applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use in through-hole threading operations where straight-flute geometry is appropriate for the material and chip evacuation requirements. The plug chamfer style makes it suitable for starting threads partway down a hole or threading completely through stock. It is commonly used in manual tapping, drill press, and light CNC applications across machine shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments where 5\/8-11 UNC fastener threads are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 UNC thread form for standard unified coarse-pitch internal threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute straight design promotes chip clearance in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer distributes cutting load across several leading threads for smoother thread entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability across a range of common workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish — no coating buildup, suitable for use with cutting fluid\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit for controlled tolerance fits in standard UNC applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction for standard fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting 5\/8-11 UNC right-hand internal threads in through-hole applications.

Always secure the workpiece before tapping and align the tap perpendicular to the work surface to avoid thread misalignment or tap breakage. Apply a suitable cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Never reverse a tap under power without confirming the holder and machine support reverse rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8-11\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: Plug\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: 1-13\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-13\/16 inches\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOversize\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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-04466116\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723956453682,"sku":"MSC-04466116","price":32.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a474a33319419629082c076266111a36.jpg?v=1788610597","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04466116-straight-flute-tap-5-8-11-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
