Description

Precision threading for through-hole components, the OSG Metric Spiral Point Threading Tap blends durability with reliable performance for professional machinists and fabrication shops. Crafted from HSS-E with Steam Oxide Coated Plus, it delivers clean, accurate threads with extended tool life.

  • Material: HSS-E (high-speed steel with cobalt) for enhanced hardness and heat resistance, improving life in demanding metals.
  • Coating: Steam Oxide Coated Plus provides improved wear resistance and corrosion protection in hot tapping environments.
  • Thread type: Metric spiral point threading tap designed for M5 x 0.8 threads.
  • Chip evacuation: Spiral point geometry efficiently pushes chips forward, reducing clogging and facilitating smoother through-hole tapping.
  • Application: Ideal for through-hole applications where consistent thread quality and long tool life are essential.
  • Brand: OSG precision engineering, backed by years of tapping expertise and reliable performance.

With this tap, you gain repeatable, accurate threads that resist wear in busy production environments. The HSS-E substrate and Steam Oxide finish tolerate heat buildup from deeper cuts, while the spiral point helps minimize inserted torque and chip buildup. This makes it well-suited for metal parts, enclosures, and components that require precise M5 x 0.8 threads through holes, supporting longer tool life and consistent performance across batches. Choosing OSG means investing in tightened tolerances, reduced rework, and dependable thread integrity from start to finish.
