Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap is suited for general-purpose threading in a range of materials including mild steel, aluminum, and plastics. The plug chamfer style eases entry into the hole and drives chips forward ahead of the tap, reducing clogging in through-hole work. With an M5 x 0.90 metric thread profile and a D3 thread limit, it delivers consistent thread tolerance for production and repair threading tasks. A licensed machinist or tooling technician typically deploys this tap in manual or CNC tapping operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in machine shops, maintenance and repair environments, and light manufacturing settings where metric threaded fastener holes are required. The M5 x 0.90 designation follows the Metric Special thread standard, making it appropriate for applications requiring that specific pitch rather than the standard M5 x 0.80 coarse pitch. It is well suited to both bench-mounted tapping operations and machine-driven applications where controlled feed rate can be maintained.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM5 x 0.90 Metric Special thread form for non-standard pitch applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer drives chips forward, ideal for through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel (HSS) construction provides hardness and wear resistance for general threading tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD3 thread limit ensures consistent, controlled thread tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral point design reduces chip packing in through-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, compatible with standard tapping equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use threading tool compatible with standard tap holders and tapping heads that accept the shank size appropriate for M5 taps.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured before beginning the tapping operation. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Do not force the tap if resistance increases sharply — back off to clear chips before continuing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M5 x 0.90\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric Special\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Style\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 Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: D3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\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: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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-04997334\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693424869682,"sku":"MSC-04997334","price":15.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b657e8ed67b6442fbe6ec5161778777d.jpg?v=1788312191","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msc-04997334-spiral-point-tap-m5x0-90","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
