Built from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this tap uses a plug chamfer to start threads progressively and guide chips forward ahead of the cut. It produces 5-44 UNF threads and is suited for use in metal fabrication, mechanical assembly, and maintenance work where fine-pitch unified threads are required. Two flutes provide efficient chip evacuation in through-hole drilling operations, keeping the tool running cleanly through the full thread length of 0.625 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in through-hole threading of ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a 5-44 UNF fine-pitch thread is specified. The H2 thread limit provides a controlled fit for Class 2B thread tolerances, making it appropriate for general-purpose mechanical assemblies requiring standard unified fine thread specifications. It is commonly used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool and die professionals working on small-fastener applications in production or repair environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-44 UNF thread size with H2 thread limit for Class 2B fit tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer starts threads easily and drives chips forward in through-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral point geometry promotes chip ejection ahead of the tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for general-purpose threading in a range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids in standard threading operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, no coolant-through feature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or production spiral point tap for any application requiring a 5-44 UNF Class 2B right-hand internal thread in through-hole workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC rigid tapping setup. Always ensure the pilot hole is drilled to the correct tap drill diameter for a 5-44 UNF thread before tapping. Apply an appropriate cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend tool life. Back the tap out periodically to break and clear chips when working in tougher materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-44\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 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-04505442\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698241700146,"sku":"MSC-04505442","price":15.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a18c2d8c9d3d39c76ee1b4d179702463.jpg?v=1788359933","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04505442-spiral-point-tap-5-44-unf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
