5/8-18 Dia. - GH5 - 4 FL - Premium - HSS - TiCN - Plug - Spiral Point Tap Series/List #2088C MT4261196

HPT†- High Performance Tap - DIN Length Recommended for steels, steel alloys, stainless steels, titanium alloys and a wide variety of materials up to 36Rc hardness. Spiral†Point Tapsare designed fo refficient tapping of through holes and blind holes with adequate depth for chip accumulation at the bottom of the hole. The shearing action of the point provides freer cutting action and ejects the chips ahead of the tap, eliminating chip evacuation problems and chip damage to the threads. Shallower flutes also result in greater tap strength, allowing for higher cutting speeds. Plug†Style(3-5 thread chamfer) is the most common chamfer used for tapping applications in through holes and blind holes with sufficient bottom clearance. CNC Reduced Neck Designenhances chip evacuation and cutting fluid flow to the cutting teeth for reduced friction, heat and galling. Also reduces contact between the tap the work piece.
