Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this plug chamfer tap drives chips forward ahead of the cut, making it well suited for through-hole tapping operations. The H2 thread limit provides controlled tolerance for standard fit assemblies. With 3 flutes and right-hand thread direction, this tap delivers consistent thread form across ferrous and non-ferrous materials in production and maintenance environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in machine shop, maintenance, and general metalworking settings where 1\/2-13 UNC threads are required in through-hole configurations. The plug chamfer, which features a moderate lead-in, handles the majority of production tapping work where the tap can pass fully through the workpiece. It is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance mechanics using manual tap handles, CNC machining centers, or drill presses equipped with tapping attachments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-13 UNC thread size with right-hand thread direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for through-hole tapping in general production use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute spiral point geometry pushes chips forward, clearing the cut path\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit for controlled tolerance and standard fit assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish — no coolant-through feature, suited for standard cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or production tap for applications requiring 1\/2-13 UNC internal threads in through-hole workpieces.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the pilot hole is drilled to the correct tap drill size for 1\/2-13 UNC before tapping. Apply a suitable cutting fluid or tapping compound to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Never force a tap; back off periodically to clear chips and prevent breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-13 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: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\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\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: 1-21\/32 inches\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  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1083 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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-04534137\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691203887410,"sku":"MSC-04534137","price":27.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/31c16768f3a3e8c1a38d686e735cf7fa.jpg?v=1788281485","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04534137-spiral-point-tap-1-2-13-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
