1-5/16 - 16 Plug RH 3B H4 Bright High Speed Steel 6-Flute Straight Flute Hand Tap MPN:JY4871141

The 1-5/16 - 16 plug tap is a high-speed steel hand tool designed for machining operations involving soft to medium hard materials such as carbon steel, cast iron, aluminum and bronze. With its six flutes that extend from the top to the bottom of the tool's body, it efficiently removes chips during cutting threads, making it faster and more precise compared to taping with traditional die and drill bits. The plug style of this hand tap has a chamfered point that provides greater clearance in tighter spaces while ensuring precise thread starts and prevents chatter marks for a cleaner finish. Furthermore, its H4 bright finish gives increased resistance to heat and wear, providing the user with longer tool life. This premium hand tap is perfect for general machining applications requiring high precision, such as industries like aerospace, automotive, medical and electronic manufacturing.
