Made from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap produces a 9\/16-18 UNF right-hand thread with 4 flutes for efficient chip evacuation in most common materials. The bottoming chamfer allows threading to within a few threads of a blind hole bottom. With an overall length of 3.375 inches and a thread length of 1.656 inches, it fits standard tap handles and machine tapping setups used in maintenance, toolroom, and production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for threading operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and similar workpiece materials. The 9\/16-18 UNF thread specification is common in hydraulic fittings, fastener applications, and precision mechanical assemblies. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians will find this tap appropriate for both hand tapping and light machine tapping applications where a fine-pitch unified thread is required at or near a blind hole bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer allows threading to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9\/16-18 UNF fine-pitch thread form for precision fastener and fitting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute design aids chip clearance during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH5 thread limit for close-tolerance thread production\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, standard configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or working tap for any setup requiring a 9\/16-18 UNF bottoming tap with an H5 thread limit.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is started square to the hole before applying cutting pressure. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being tapped to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Do not force a bottoming tap beyond its designed depth or use it to start a thread from an undrilled or unchamfered hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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: H5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.656 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 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\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-04485199\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690705617202,"sku":"MSC-04485199","price":28.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d01c598cac3654dcb347038353335846.jpg?v=1788274259","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04485199-straight-flute-tap-9-16-18","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
