Spiral Point Tap: #2-56, UNC, 2 Flutes, Plug, 2B, High Speed Steel, Bright Finish MPN:1540362

The Spiral Point Tap (2-56 UNC, 2 flutes) provides efficient threading with its high-speed steel material that resists heat & wear, making it suitable for metals and plastics machining like aluminum, brass or steel while its plug chamfer helps to reduce stripping. Its 2B finish enhances lubricity improving chip evacuation, lowering tool drag, increasing accuracy during operation. The 2 flutes deliver an effective balance between feed rate control & material removal rate appropriate for through holes that demand high levels of precision, such as automotive, aerospace or machine shops where fine threading is crucial to maintain consistent fits while preventing galling.
