Union Butterfield 1534NR(UNC) High-Speed Steel Spiral Point Tap, Uncoated (Bright) Finish, Round Shank With Square End, Bottoming Chamfer, H2 Tolerance, #10-24 Thread Size Feature

  • Spiral point tap pushes chips ahead of tool to reduce clogging
  • Spiral point with straight flutes for cutting threads in through holes
  • Non-relieved design for applications requiring close gauging fits, for manual feed rate applications, or for use on older equipment
  • Round shank with square end helps to minimize rotation in the tool holder
  • Available in UNC (Unified Coarse), UNF (Unified Fine), or UNS (Unified Special) right-hand thread options for different applications

The Union Butterfield 1534NR(UNC)/1534(UNF)/1534(UNS) uncoated, high-speed steel spiral point tap has a non-relieved design, straight flutes, and a round shank with a square end, and is used to create right-hand threads in a range of materials. It is available in three different ANSI thread specification standards: UNC (Unified Coarse), UNF (Unified Fine), or UNS (Unified Special). The spiral point of this tap (sometimes referred to as a “gun tap”) pushes chips ahead of the tool and the straight flutes reduce clogging. Both characteristics make it suitable for threading through holes (extending through the workpiece). The non-relieved design of this series has concentric threads without pitch diameter relief. It is recommended for applications requiring close gauging fits and in older equipment that is not sufficiently rigid to accomodate the relieved-style series of spiral pointed taps.

Right-hand threads are designed to tighten when the head or nut is rotated clockwise (the most common threading direction). High-speed steel (HSS) is a common general-purpose steel for cutting tools, and is compatible with a variety of materials. With no coating or surface treatment, this uncoated tool can be used on a broad range of materials and provide an economical alternative to coated tools. The round shank with square end helps to minimize rotation in the tool holder. This tool can be used in machines, such as drill presses or lathes, or with hand tools such as tap wrenches.

In the Union Butterfield 1534NR tap series all taps have two flutes. The 1534NR(UNC) and 1534(UNF) taps are available with a variety of chamfers. The single 1534(UNS) tap has a plug chamfer. This tap conforms to ANSI standards and can create threads to a depth 2 ½ times its diameter. Both 1534NR(UNC) and 1534NR(UNF) taps are suitable for ANSI 2B and 3B tolerance classes: 2B is an average quality fit for commercial and industrial fasteners; 3B produces close-tolerance fasteners used for greater resistance to stripping, as in aerospace applications. The single 1534NR(UNS) tap is suitable for the ANSI 3B tolerance class.

Taps produce internal threads in previously formed holes and can be used in machines (such as drill presses) or with hand tools. Common types of taps include hand taps, spiral point taps, spiral flute taps, thread forming taps, and pipe taps. Hand taps (straight-flute taps) collect chips in the straight flutes of the tool; spiral point taps push chips through holes ahead of the tool; and spiral flute taps pull chips back from the tip of the tool, up and out the hole. Thread forming taps, also known as cold forming taps, press rather than cut to create threads in a drilled hole, and no chips are created. Pipe taps create threads in pipes and pipe fittings. Each thread type designates a thread profile and each type is identified with an abbreviation. In the U.S. and Canada, the Unified Thread Standard is the dominant thread type, including UNC (Unified Coarse), UNF (Unified Fine), and NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads, among others.

  • Spiral point tap pushes chips ahead of tool to reduce clogging
  • Spiral point and straight flutes for cutting threads in through holes
  • Titanium nitride (TiN) coating combines hardness with low friction for extended tool life and faster cutting
  • Relieved-style design reduces friction between tap and workpiece for reduced tool wear
  • Plug chamfer for easier starting and correct perpendicular alignment

The Union Butterfield TN1585(UNC)/TN1585(UNF) high-speed steel spiral point tap has a relieved-style design, straight flutes with a plug chamfer, titanium nitride (TiN) coating, and a round shank with a square end, and is used to create right-hand threads in a range of materials. It is available in two different ANSI thread specification standards: UNC (Unified Coarse) and UNF (Unified Fine). The spiral point of this tap (sometimes referred to as a “gun tap”) pushes chips ahead of the tool and the straight flutes reduce clogging. Both characteristics make it suitable for threading through holes (extending through the workpiece). Titanium nitride (TiN) is a gold-colored ceramic coating that combines hardness with low friction for extended cutting tool life and permits faster cutting speeds than with uncoated tools. Relieved-style tap design reduces the friction between tap and workpiece for reduced tool wear. A plug chamfer distributes cutting to ease tapping at the beginning of the hole and to maintain correct perpendicular alignment with the workpiece.

Right-hand threads are designed to tighten when a head or nut is rotated clockwise (the most common threading direction). High-speed steel (HSS) is a common general-purpose steel for cutting tools, and is compatible with a variety of materials. The round shank with square end helps to minimize rotation in the tool holder. This tool can be used in machines, such as drill presses or lathes, or with hand tools such as tap wrenches.

In the Union Butterfield TN1585(UNC) tap series, taps with nominal diameters of ¼“ and 5/16” are available with two or three flutes and those with diameters of 3/8” to ½” have three flutes. In the TN1585(UNF) series, taps with nominal diameters of ¼” and 5/16” have two flutes and those with diameters of 3/8” to ½” have three flutes. All taps in these series have plug chamfers. This tap conforms to ANSI standards and can create threads to a depth 2 ½ times its diameter.

Union Butterfield 1590(UNC) High-Speed Steel Spiral Flute Tap, Heavy-Duty, Black Oxide Finish, Round Shank With Square End, Plug Chamfer, #10-24 Thread Size Feature

  • Spiral flute tap design pulls chips back from the tip of the tool and out of the hole to prevent clogging
  • Spiral flutes for creating threads in blind holes
  • Black oxide finish improves lubricity, resists corrosion, and helps prevent buildup
  • Heavy-duty design is suitable for tougher materials
  • Available in UNC (Unified Coarse) or UNF (Unified Fine) right-hand thread options for different applications

The Union Butterfield 1590(UNC)/1590(UNF)/1591(UNC)/1591(UNF) high-speed steel heavy-duty spiral flute tap has a round shank with a square end and a black oxide finish, and is used to create right-hand threads in a range of materials. It is available in two different ANSI thread specification standards: UNC (Unified Coarse) and UNF (Unified Fine). The 40-degree spiral flutes on this tap pull chips back from the tip of the tool up and out the hole to prevent clogging. This characteristic makes the tap suitable for blind or bottoming holes (with only one opening). The heavy-duty design (slower helix angle, large core diameter, and wider flute throat) makes it suitable for tougher materials in which average- or fast-spiral designs perform marginally. The black oxide finish of this tool will not chip. It improves lubricity, resists corrosion, and helps to prevent buildup and welding on the cutting edge of the tool.

Right-hand threads are designed to tighten when a head or nut is rotated clockwise (the most common threading direction). High-speed steel (HSS) is a common general-purpose steel for cutting tools and is compatible with a variety of materials. The round shank with square end helps to minimize rotation in the tool holder. This tool can be used in machines, such as drill presses or lathes, or with hand tools such as tap wrenches.

In the Union Butterfield 1590(UNC)/1590(UNF) series, taps with machine-screw sizes 6 and 8 have two flutes; machine-screw sizes 10 and 12 have three flutes. In the 1591(UNC)/1591(UNF) series all taps have three flutes. In both series taps are available with a variety of chamfers. This tap conforms to ANSI standards and can create threads to a depth 2 ½ times its diameter. It is suitable for the ANSI 3B tolerance class: 3B produces close-tolerance fasteners that resist loosening, as in aerospace applications.

Taps produce internal threads in previously formed holes and can be used in machines (such as drill presses) or with hand tools. Common types of taps include hand taps, spiral point taps, spiral flute taps, thread forming taps, and pipe taps. Hand taps (straight-flute taps) collect chips in the straight flutes of the tool; spiral point taps push chips through holes ahead of the tool; and spiral flute taps pull chips back from the tip of the tool, up and out the hole. Thread forming taps, also known as cold forming taps, press rather than cut to create threads in a drilled hole, and no chips are created. Pipe taps create threads in pipes and pipe fittings. Each thread type designates a thread profile and each type is identified with an abbreviation. In the U.S. and Canada, the Unified Thread Standard is the dominant thread type, including UNC (Unified Coarse), UNF (Unified Fine), and NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads, among others.

Recoil 33120 Wire Thread Repair Kit Standard UNC 3/4-10 Feature

  • inserts are the quick and easy way to repair damaged threads or create stronger original threads.
  • Reduces thread wear, is interchangeable with other brands of inserts or tooling.
Recoils innovative and cost-effective thread repair kits are utilized worldwide in industrial and automotive maintenance situations. Recoil inserts are rolled from high quality stainless steel wire with a diamond shaped cross section, wound to the shape of a spring thread. Once the insert is installed into a tapped hole, it provides a permanent and wear resistant thread in the parent material designed to be stronger than the original thread. The inserts are greater in diameter than the corresponding tapped hole and compress as they are installed. This allows maximum surface contact area with the tapped thread, safely and permanently anchoring the inserts into place. The inserts compensatory action shares the load over the entire bolt and hole, increasing holding or pull out strength. With a Recoil insert in place, load and stress are more evenly distributed. Recoil inserts are installed in four easy steps... 1) Drill the hole. 2) Tap the Hole. 3) Install the insert. 4) Break the tang. Thread Diameter: 3/4 (.750-Inch) Pitch: 10 TPI Length: 1.125-Inch Max Temperature: 425 Celcius Material: Stainless Steel Style: Free Running

Union Butterfield 1534(UNC) High-Speed Steel Spiral Point Tap, Uncoated (Bright) Finish, Round Shank With Square End, Plug Chamfer, H1 Tolerance, #8-32 Thread Size Feature

  • Spiral point tap pushes chips ahead of tool to reduce clogging
  • Spiral point and straight flutes for cutting threads in through holes
  • Relieved-style design with eccentric, full-pitch diameter thread relief for free cutting and reduced tool wear
  • Round shank with square end helps to minimize rotation in the tool holder
  • Available in UNC (Unified Coarse) and UNF (Unified Fine) right-hand thread options for different applications

The Union Butterfield 1534(UNC)/1534(UNF) uncoated, high-speed steel spiral point tap has a relieved-style design, straight flutes, and a round shank with a square end, and is used to create right-hand threads in a range of materials. It is available in two different ANSI thread specification standards: UNC (Unified Coarse) and UNF (Unified Fine). The spiral point of this tap (sometimes referred to as a “gun tap”) pushes chips ahead of the tool and the straight flutes reduce clogging. Both characteristics make it suitable for threading through holes (extending through the workpiece). Relieved-style design reduces the friction between tap and workpiece for reduced tool wear. This tap features eccentric, full pitch diameter thread relief for free cutting and increased tool life.

Right-hand threads are designed to tighten when a head or nut is rotated clockwise (the most common threading direction). High-speed steel (HSS) is a common general-purpose steel for cutting tools and is compatible with a variety of materials. With no coating or surface treatment, this uncoated tool can be used on a broad range of materials and provide an economical alternative to coated tools. The round shank with square end helps to minimize rotation in the tool holder. This tool can be used in machines, such as drill presses or lathes, or with hand tools such as tap wrenches.

In the Union Butterfield 1534(UNC) and 1534(UNF) tap series, all tap sizes have two flutes. They are available with a variety of chamfers. This tap conforms to ANSI standards and can create threads to a depth 2 ½ times its diameter. It is suitable for ANSI 2B and 3B tolerance classes: 2B is an average quality fit for commercial and industrial fasteners; 3B produces close-tolerance fasteners used for greater resistance to stripping, as in aerospace applications.

Taps produce internal threads in previously formed holes and can be used in machines (such as drill presses) or with hand tools. Common types of taps include hand taps, spiral point taps, spiral flute taps, thread forming taps, and pipe taps.
