Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap features a taper chamfer that progressively engages the workpiece to reduce starting torque and improve thread alignment. With 4 flutes and an H2 thread limit, it delivers consistent dimensional accuracy suitable for standard tolerance threading work. Overall length is 3.8125 inches and thread length is 1.8125 inches. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for general-purpose threading in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where straight flute geometry is appropriate — typically softer steels, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable metals. The taper chamfer style makes it well suited for starting threads by hand or under machine power in through-holes or in holes where chip clearance is not a constraint. It handles right-hand thread cutting in standard UNC 5\/8-11 applications found in manufacturing, repair, and maintenance environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 UNC thread size with right-hand thread direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper chamfer for progressive thread engagement and easier starting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 straight flutes for chip clearance in through-hole and soft-material applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across a range of machinable metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit for standard dimensional tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish — no coating buildup, suitable for use with cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard straight flute tap for use in manual tap handles, T-handle wrenches, and compatible tapping machines that accept 5\/8-11 UNC tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians using appropriate tap handles or tapping attachments. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is started perpendicular to the hole to prevent cross-threading or breakage. Apply a suitable cutting fluid for the material being tapped to extend tool life and improve thread finish. Reverse the tap periodically when hand-tapping to break chips and reduce the risk of tap seizure.\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 UNC\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: Taper\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: 1.8125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.8125 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\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-04466132\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710812487986,"sku":"MSC-04466132","price":33.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d88bc3aa122722ae40de8f4db09e63aa.jpg?v=1788470880","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04466132-straight-flute-tap-5-8-11","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
