Description
#8-32 UNC HSS Plug Hand Tap for cutting internal threads by hand or in a tapping head. Cutting edges on the chamfered lead progressively form the thread as the tap advances, with straight flutes carrying chips back out of the hole.

- HSS construction that holds a keen edge at moderate cutting speeds and regrinds easily.
- Tin Coated finish, titanium nitride coating raises surface hardness and allows higher feeds.
- #8 thread at 32 threads per inch.
- Supplied 4 per package.
